Well I have been in Houston now and I can say I'm not overly impressed. The highways alone were a crazy mess to try to navigate. The GPS told us to go on this one toll road, now OK, I don't really want to pay tolls but it is seriously not a deal buster. So we are on the road and the signage overhead says no cash, EZ Pass only. Now please forgive me if I'm being silly, but have you ever thought that visitors to the area might want to use this road too, especially if that is the way you are being directed by your GPS? Have you? We don't have an EZ Pass for Texas/Houston roads. I do however have a Sun Pass for Florida roads, but I don't know if that would work for this and we didn't want to get a nasty fine, so thank you very much Houston, we had to travel over surface roads, stop and go, traffic lights and shopping districts. NICE, welcome to Texas.
Moving right along, as we went over the state border we saw some of the biggest refineries I've ever seen. They stretched far and wide, both sides of the highway. There were runs of pipes going along the road, up and over the road and then along the other side. I have never seen anything like this. It was crazy!!!!!! Other than that, the ride was very uneventful and we are now safe and sound in Louisiana. Tomorrow we are going to check out some Creole Nature Trails, sounds fun!! Goodnight guys!!
