I'll begin at somewhat the beginning. Lots to catch up on...
Here, I start with our trip to Houston, TX in June 2007, for Cyrus's dad's 60th Birthday. It was my first trip to Houston, and I was a bit overwhelmed by the massive amount of concrete walls, highways and buildings. And strip malls. Lots of strip malls. I mean, it seems like that was all I noticed! Things were cheaper there too. It is amazing how, having lived in San Diego for years, I have become desensitized to the higher cost of living. It took a trip to a place like Houston to realize how different the rest of the world is from Southern California.
For example, Cy and I were given a tour of the neighborhood where his parents live. We saw what would qualify as mansions valued substantially less than our small abode here in Del Mar. But would I give up living in our little paradise by the sea? HECK, NO! The hills, the ocean and the valleys and all of our beautiful foliage in San Diego County will keep me here as long as circumstances allow me to stay here!
Anyway, here are some pictures taken in Houston. We went to a museum, saw a tall wall flowing with a waterfall, and caught an IMAX 3-D show. The 3D effect was another first for me - I loved it! We got a goofy picture of ourselves in our 3D goggles as well.
