  4. Galveston is really cool and is right next to Houston. It has a beach and was hit by one of the worst hurricanes. It is one of the best fishing places. I caught a tuna and i helped catch a shark and more. There is Moody Gardens where they have an aquarium and a wave pool. I like the hotel called the San Louis because it is really cool and right next to the ocean.

  20. Houston rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you know that The Houston Zoo has over 4,500 animals and 900 species. Also the Houston Zoo is the 7th most visited zoo in the nation and it is huge. There are fun things to do and lots of animals to meet. Some of my favorite animals to see are the giraffes because they always lick their cage. Also, the petting zoo because sometimes the goats are standing on the benches and it is so funny. There is even a part of the zoo where the chickens can roam free. You can feed animals, touch them and there are even endangered species. My Girl Scout troop got to spend the night there for one of our outings. It was fun to see all the animals at night time. There is a lot to do and I only told you a little bit of it. I hope you learned something new!!!!!
