random ramblings

We went to Houston… yes AGAIN :p for the long weekend.. we were just there last month, but last time it was so hectic because it was during the same weekend that Hendrik got a Kendo exam in Dallas..  so the only reason we still made the trip to Houston was because we didn’t want to waste our hotel reservation (.it was at JW Marriott! ) ..  we got there around midnight on Friday..  woke up late on Saturday.. had lunch in Chinatown and headed to Dallas straight after lunch.. so I felt stupid about it afterwards.. So.. to make up for that, I booked us another trip to Houston for this past weekend.. 

This time around the weather was really bad.. lots of T-storms and rained really bad, but we still made it to Moody Garden in Galveston, stopped by at one of the beaches there.. and the Houston downtown aquarium..

We took lots of pics, but there isn’t a single picture of ME that I like, so I’m just gonna post Hendrik’s pictures

Moody Garden pyramid at the background.. wondering what’s inside it ? Well.. supposedly a Tropical Forest :p.. there’s also a 2nd pyramid with an Aquarium inside, but we didn’t go in because we planned to go to the downtown aquarium instead which at that moment I thought would be bigger and better .. after we actually went there.. it’s actually quite small , but it’s  located in downtown..  so Hendrik said.."How big do u expect it to be?"
