Lone Star City
Brazos Bend state park yesterday.
Cruising down the freeway in my fast fast car. The buildings in the background is the Galleria district of Houston, where we went to a big mall. Said mall contained ice-skating rink and 500+ shops.
Oil tankers lining up to get into the Houston Ship Channel. This is the busiest port in the United States for international freight.
Me with the Saturn 5 rocket which blasted the Apollo 11 mission to the moon, now stored at Rocket Park, part of the Johnson Space Center.
The flight deck of a space shuttle.
The San Jacinto Monument, at the site of the San Jacinto battleground where Texas won its independence from Mexico in 1836. The monument is 177.7m tall, a full 8m taller than the Washington monument. Go Texas!
Tomorrow we're off to Austin to see the capitol of Texas.
In other news, Dairy Queen has just released their best blizzard ever. It contains vanilla ice cream and reece's peanut butter cups. Does it get any better than this?

That hat brings out the Texan in you. Say happy birthday to Daniel and post a photo of him in is birthday suit/dress. Did he enjoy his fat salad?
Kevin - Celebrated Dan's birthday with Long Island Iced Tea in a Coyote Ugly bar in Austin. The bar really was a lot like the movie.
Yay, Long Island Iced Teas with no hangover the following morning.
Sounds like a good excuse to drink. Hot *respectable women* dancing on the bar? Haven't actually seen the movie
