From past trips, many, would second that on Galveston and Pappasitos... we went over to Kemah last time I was there for a while (October??) but sis says it is all gone now. Have a question for you Tejans... I need some western wear for an event down here on the island and I wanted to get it while I was in Houston... oh, I'm headed up there the 19th (US first city of choice for north bound Trini expats due to direct flight daily on excellent Co air)... anyway, and also my 'keet wants some boots, where would you go for a large selection of all that stuff?
I like the Houston Zoo, but there is no beer there.
