Houston – Day One

Hey all — Kelly and I are chillin’ in the ayche-oh-ewe at the moment. The flight into Houston was pretty uneventful, but being a daylight trip, we got to watch all the scenery below which was pretty cool. Continental overwhelms you with stuff to eat, though! Normally, on Southwest, it’s just a bag of peanuts and a smile, but not on Continental! Let me expound:

1. (1) package of salami slices
2. (2) Two packs of crackers
3. (1) Gala apple
4. (1) bag of chips
5. (1) peanut roll

Well, that was pretty good, because I *was* hungry. But then, then they come around with pretzels! Man, I already ate!!

Well, we got into Bush (Sr.) International Airport and made our way to Katz’s Deli, a cool 24-hour deli joint in Houston. Free pickles!! All you can eat, and these were GOOD PICKLES. Anyway, we are off to Galveston and NASA today, so more later for the moment, enjoy the Houston Trip Gallery.

Nice to see someone else is as fond of the “scenery behind the wing” shot as I am… hope you all are having fun.
