Downtown Discovery Green at night with the ice rink and lights then over to Market Sq are Main street bars.
Take the port boat tour.
Galveston on the Strand. Watch the cruise ships come in on the patio of Olympia Grill.
Walk Rice Village shops and stop and have drink at the Gingerman or a dessert at The Chocolate Bar.
Drive thru River Oaks and then over to the Beer Can House.
Go to 19th street in the Heights and have lunch at Harolds Patio or the Deli on the corner. Drive down Heights Blvd stop for coffee at Revival.
Lots to do in Htown!

Show them the Big Bubble downtown at the Preston bridge. You just have to know where to find the big red button that activates it.





Afterwards, take them to David Adickes' former studio on Summer Street to look at the statues of presidents' heads and the Beatles.
