Guest guest Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 The Downtown aquarium and restaurant is FABULOUS! It is fairly new and it has a whole amusement park plus a really cool aquarium with a shark tube you walk through while the sharks swim around you. The restaurant is pricey, but you can just do the aquarium too. It’s not just fish there is a whole exhibit with white tigers in an innovative exhibit. You do not see them through cages, but you enter a kind of pseudo temple where you come face to face with the tigers separated by glass. It is hard to explain but truly remarkable. Here is the web site: http://www.aquariumrestaurants.com/downtownaquariumhouston/flash_content/index.html I could not find picts, but here is a good description: White Tigers of the Maharaja's Temple The first documented sightings of an unusual animal, the white tiger, were in central India in the 1940s. See four magnificent white tigers lounge and play in the ruins of the Maharaja's temple and learn about the Downtown Aquarium's conservation efforts to help their cousins in the wild.

We were hoping to so the space station. I have been to Cape Canaveral (like a 100 years ago when I was a kid) but never Houston.
