You probably already know about the Montrose area - very fun to just walk around and go in stores (one end of the Montrose area on Westheimer is antiques and tea shops, etc - the other end is more Vintage Clothing stores and music shops).



If you enjoy the outdoors, I love Bear Creek park which is north of I-10 off of Hwy 6. They have lots of trails for biking or walking and tons of picnic tables and BBQs. The trees are very nice there and you don't feel like you are in the city at all. It is a huge park and has football fields and baseball diamonds as well as a small collection of animals (goats, buffalo, and llamas.)

Westheimer is great and there is also a little strip of shops on Harwin Dr. off of West Park Tollway. There the shops used to be known for their knowckoff bags and such but now they are mostly known for they're great accesories at great prices. Houston's and Aries are the best restaurants in town. I would suggest visiting the theatre district as well because you can see some great plays there. Hope you have fun in Houston!

the position in Texas. no longer purely do Dallas , Houston , Austin & San Antonio have a plethora of historic & sport places yet so do the smaller cities close to the Texas hill us of a like in New Braunfels or San Marcos. do a touch study on a number of those cities & see what you want. OOPS. I stated you stated Houston. you could rigidity to Galveston in case you want. there is also the pony music (Sam Houston Race Park), The Aquarium downtown, the paintings museum & the technological know-how museum. carry lots of cotton outfits. this is damn warm at present!

GO TO THE WATER WALL NEXT TO THE WILLIAMS TOWER. FARMERS MARKET ON AIRLINE. TRADERS VILLAGE. IF YOU ARE IN THE MOOD, GO DRINK BEER UNDER THE CHEMISTRY BUILDING AT RICE UNIVERSITY, AT A PLACE CALLED VALHALLA. GO HANG OUT UNDER THE PIERCE ELEVATED AND DRING BEER THERE TOO. ITS A VAST CITY, WITH LOTS OF THINGS TO DO.
