Took the plunge
So I flew from Dallas back to Houston on Wednesday evening. Flight was fine with no problems. I checked into the Towne Place suites not far from the airport which was fine - not exactly luxurious but simple and clean.
I only had the one night there before I moved out into the Marriott West Chase on Westheimer road. This hotel is alright, although the service can be a little slow. We went for a mexican on Thursday evening at a place called Pappasitos. Was incredibly busy for a school night. Not bad food but not brill either. On Friday evening I walked round to the mall just round from the hotel and found a nice little sushi restaurant. Beautiful food. It was called Toki Sushi. Saturday of course was a free day so I caught a cab to the Galleria. This is apparently the fourth largest shopping mall in the US. I had a pretty decent walk round before I managed to find the apple store. I took the plunge and bought an iPad! I was amazed just how much cheaper it was - a full two hundred pounds for the same spec. Anyway, I've not been able to use it that much as I don't have my Mac with me to sync it up but the guy in the shop was able to get it going for me so I can do the basics. I must say that it is absolutely fantastic. The limited use I've had has been pretty darn cool!
I also bought an Ed Hardy tee-shirt, a new Oakley bag and an Airport Express.
Last night I ate at the same mall but went for a restaurant called The Outback. Great steaks and really cheap too...
