has added a new journalI thought it would be good to have one in Htown and finally meet some old friends or new friends might end up with a friendship for lifetime or great memories Well a few things to do great places to shop like the Galleria, Rice Village, seven more malls to choose from or other shops around the city. Tons of places to eat with all types of Restaurants like Mexican, Indian, Asian, Sushi to name a few but BAR B Q and Crawfish or Seafood is few of the best. A tour around cities sites or just catch a Houston Rockets Game at Toyota which a right next to Hiltons America, Discovery Green Park and Minute Maid Park where the Houston Astros play all located in Downtown Houston, great museums, parks and the one of worlds biggest Medical Center is near by. I am thinking of having this meet up like early to mid March the weather is good but for now this is just a start up phase and nothing is set :)
The Dates and Times could change, I made this event just to see who interested, depends on how many people do come I will arrange transportation and hotel that is why such a advance notice so everything organized and goes smoothly. This is research only and nothing is set in stone. Maybe I can pull of a few surprises who knows :)
