Easy to book via website. The staff were awesome; Very friendly, kind, and professional. I have participated in other similar activities in other cities, and this was BY FAR the most hands-on experience I've had in a glass studio. A very individual, personalized experience. Highly recommend!!

This is a very small (3 1/2 acres) site maintained by the University of Texas Marine Science Institute across the street (park in the lot by the Institute on the other side of the street’. This is built in marsh area and has several short boardwalks accompanied with nice natural landscaping. There are several informative signs that are very helpful explaining oyster beds and the ecological significance of marshes. It is an outstanding location for bird watching. Just a very short walk to the jetty by the ship channel.

Take a half day and walk through four generations of Texas History, from the dog run cabin to the fanciest of 1900 mansions, with docents ready to act out the lives of those who had come before. Be sure to sign up for the cowboy lunch, served fresh from the frying pan to your plate (peach cobbler!). Watch the cowboys herd the longhorn steers; great for families. If you have an extra hour, drive the few miles down to Brazos Bend State Park and see the alligators roaming wild.

I remember the news and the horrible 1966 massacre. I wanted to see the clock tower myself. It is a beautiful monument on campus, but it brings chills. This is only one aspect of campus. It is a beautiful place. We ate in a cafeteria and the food was pretty good and the A/C was delightful!
