A walk on the moon

Okay...first off... NASA is just COOL!!  The kids and I visited the Johnson Space Center and it was simply awesome.

I have been interested in space all of my life, not maniacal about it mind you, but always interested.  Well, this place was definitely worth the visit.  Cannot say enough about it.  There is also a tram tour of the facility and we got to see some of the new "deep space" stuff that they are working on.

After the Nasa visit, my young 'uns got to experience a Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwich.  Now, what I learned was that the term Banh Mi literally means "sandwich" so that was a bit of a letdown, but the sandwiches were not.  Great place called Hughies.

Also got a chance to go to Sky Zone.  My knees and ankles would not allow direct participation, but the kids bounced around like crazy.  It is a trampoline fun house with trampolines on the walls as well.  Half hour for $10 and the kids (15 and 12) were exhausted.

It was wonderful to have too many places to go and actually have to make choices.  But then again, that is Houston.  There is always something to do here.
