Houston Day 4

Houston no more. We drove straight to Houston the first time, 12 hours worth, but not on the way back! I wanted to visit Avery Island and roam around the bayou, but New Orleans called. We snagged a room at the Inn on St. James, ate dinner a Couve and roamed a bit around St. Charles before heading off. Hit Cafe Du Monde, the cathedral and Central Grocery for a mufuletta before stopping by a cemetery on the way out.

Houston Day 3

Today I few solo back to Galvaston. I was fascinated by this city. It reminded me of 2 of my other favorite cities... Savannah and New Orleans. It had a great edge to it. Some nice parts, some not so nice. Obviously recovering from Ike which brought a storm surge of about 5 feet. The city had plenty of color and really pulled me in. I had a blast taking pictures and would love to go back for more pics and painting.
