Discovery Park.

We journeyed in to central Houston today. Starting in Discovery Park. What used to be a car park, in 2008 the city decided to clear it and make a 12 acre rec park. It's a lovely space with a canoeing lake, dedicated dog walks and a central amphitheatre for events It's lovely. Lots of art too. There where loads of people and kids around. It's well used. We also walked to Minuit Maid Park home of The Astros baseball team. There was a game on so loads of fans outside. Opposite where two old houses on concrete stilts. They had been moved back to their original plots for renovation after storage while the stadium and surrounding area had been developed. It was pretty hot again today so didn't stay out too long. Back in our room for a nap and then the weather changed and an awesome thunderstorm surrounded the hotel. We got some video.
