About 35 minutes from our home, Galveston is a great day trip option. With more than 30 miles of beaches plus a wealth of cultural and historic institutions make this island a Gulf of Mexico vacation hot spot. If you go, don't forget your walking shoes: With 14 museums and 20 art galleries, plus several historic homes and mansions, there's a lot of ground to cover. Texas history buffs will love The Bryan Museum and those with more of a nautical interest can check out the Texas Seaport Museum. Families will enjoy the many child-friendly attractions, including Moody Gardens, with its replica of a tropical rain forest. It's easy to get caught up in all the activities, but don't forget to spend some downtime in the sun and on the beach.

About 30 minutes from our home. We have visited the Houston Zoo many times and find it to be a new place at each visit. They are continually enlarging, adding and improving exhibits for their animals. There are a few air conditioned exhibits that help taking a break from the heat. TIP: It is better to arrive early as the free parking fills up fast. By 10AM most spots were gone on weekends. The zoo cost around $22-30 each for the general admission.

About 30 minutes away; Discovery Green is a fantastic oasis in the heart of downtown Houston. Although a relatively small park, it is very well laid out and is always alive with activities. Within the space are several dining options (from fast food to upscale), lots of playground equipment and a splash pad fountain for the kids, an impressive list of free classes (yoga, dance, etc), live music concerts and big screen movies presented almost weekly throughout the year...there is always something cool to do here. A list of what's going on is available on their website.
