Next month I have to go on a business trip to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I have a 9 hour layover in Houston. I really don't want to stick around the airport. What can I see in Houston (I'll arrive at 12:30 pm and leave at 9:10 pm)? |headscratch|

I know of the Johnson Space Centre but not much more. Any suggestions? |idea|

Thanks,

Ken |smile|

I lived in Dallas for about 7 years and visited Houston once. At the time the had a country/western place called 'Gilleys'... If it's still there, check it out...

From Bush airport, head south on JFK Blvd. to Beltway 8 west. Follow that to I-45 north. Exit Richey Rd. and stay on the service road north bound. On the right about 2 lights or so is Corvettes of Houston. They always have a few nice restored vettes there. A couple lights further north is a road called FM1960. Make a U-turn there, (now south bound on the I-45 service road) watch on the right side for 'Corvettes and Classics'. Thats another nice place to spend some time.

Hey that's a good idea! Checkout a few 'Vettes. I should fit right in too. Coming from a cowboy filled, oil rich province to a cowboy filled oil rich state should make me feel right at home. |wink| I'll just have to make sure that I don't say "eh" at the end of sentences! |haha| . Thanks for the ideas guys.
