When you think of Texas, do you generally think of the typical cowboy like looks and western accents? On contrary to popular belief, Houston, Texas is actually very modern! Houston is the capital of Texas and probably the most populated city in all of Texas. The first attraction that stood out to me was NASA's Johnson's Space Center. This is a museum filled with artifacts NASA used or uses. I even had the opportunity to try to space ice cream for the first time! Then I went to a famous typical fast food place WhatABurger! It was delicious and had such a different and distinctive taste from the burgers I've tried. I visited Galveston beach too. It was a beautiful people filled with people. The water is actually from the Gulf of Mexico which appears more brownish instead of clear blue from an ocean. They had a large Boardwalk "Pleasure Pier" with rides, games on a large pier for an amazing view! The weather there is usually humid, even in the Winter time. Most homes and towns were built in a metropolitan style. There are tall buildings close together and several intertwining roads! Overall, Houston is a unique and fascinating city you have to see for yourself!
