Houston, We Have a Problem (or Not)
So, you're in Houston, eh? Lucky duck! You've got more to do here than just avoid hurricanes (though that's a pretty big one). Let's dive into the wonderful world of Houston activities.
Eat Your Way Through Houston
Houston's food scene is like a rollercoaster - full of ups, downs, and unexpected flavors. You can't visit without trying:
- Tex-Mex: It's not Tex-Mex until you've had a margarita the size of your head and nachos that could feed a small army.
- BBQ: Brisket, pulled pork, and ribs so good, you'll question your life choices.

Culture Vulture or Adrenaline Junkie?
Houston has something for everyone, even if you're not sure what you want.
- Museum District: Art, science, history - you name it, Houston's got a museum for it. Just don't blame us if you end up spending all day staring at a dinosaur.
- Outdoor Adventures: From kayaking on Buffalo Bayou to hiking in nearby parks, there's plenty of fresh air to be had. Just remember to pack bug spray.

When the sun goes down, the fun just gets started.
