Finishing our Texas bucket list

Here's a bunch of photos that we never got around to posting from Houston. Some of these are on facebook but a blog is a much better scrapbook so I wanted to get them on here. Before we left we wanted to see as much of Houston that we could while I had time in my 4th year of med school.

We purchased a membership to NASA and went several times

the original mission control room

astronaught training center


titan missile



We went to the art car musuem. Was bummed we couldn't make it to the actual art car parade




They give free tours of Houston's port system, which was really fun to ride the boat and see all the commercial liners







We discovered our favorite park the last 6 months in Houston



We took the boys to mardigras parade in Galveston






Back to NASA


Chinese cultural center


We went to the JP Morgan tower on the 60th floor observation deck




We went to the blue bell factory





Not on our bucket list but want to make sure these photos don't get lost. Our crazy house

Peter's awesome bloody nose


We went to San Antonio, stayed in a somewhat fancy hotel, visited the Alamo, saw the largest boots in the World, had fun at a fun bunny park, saw the famous river walk, and we went to a famous hamburger place (Fatty's I think?) where I had an ice cream cheeseburger









This was a glass blowing factory that let you watch. Beautiful art and it was fun to watch





We didn't get to do everything on our bucket list, such as we didn't do some cool hikes in Austin and we never made it out to Big Bend National Park or South Padre Island. We didn't do it all but I'm glad for everything we did try to do.
