There are literally hundreds of wonderful museums in Houston. I love the Museum of Natural History, myself. There is fine dining and professional sports. They have these Mexican areas of town that have wonderful Mexican goods to sell. NASA space center is really nice. Moody Gardens is not too far away, it's got a lot to offer. That's all I can think of right now.

Galveston is very historical, Nasa is very entertaining, The galleria, Uptown Park and Katy Mills along with the Woodlands are great shopping areas. The museum district of course is wonderful.

Kemah broadwalk, going out to clubs, and going to the park to relax.

Eating their good food is great, especially their catfish; yummy.

I never went there, but if I did, I would try to visit the Space Center. I have heard of it already as a kid in France at the time of the moon landing. Further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houston http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson_Space_Center

If you've seen the "normal" museums, check out some of the unusual ones. The Holocause museum is a must-see, at least once. Also, you can see some really strange art at the Menil collection. There's the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft, and the Weather museum. The Children's Museum is fun no matter how old you are, and everybody should experience the butterfly exhibit at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Also, not in the museum district is the National Museum of Funeral History. Fascinating place with very cheap admission and rotating exhibits.

What are fun things anywhere. What can you do in Houston you can't do anywhere else. I,ve been to Houston. It is nice area but hotter than hell in the summer. We swam in the Gulf of Mexico--that's one thing you can do. The water is 80 degrees. It's as warm as your bathtub. Great place to skinnydip, but do it in the dark!
