A rural wetlands part of my hometown, in suburban Houston! Taken in December. And my 1st ever post here of my hometown. You've seen my travel photos and you've seen my new city Kirov, Russia. So here is suburban Houston :). And some of the beautiful wetlands and marshes! I grew up and lived almost all my life in the crowded suburbs, but this park is a quite rural and isolated part! Quite idyllic :). It's at the Armand Bayou Nature Center in southeast Houston. I was home for the holidays and my dad and I went to the park :). I haven't been to this park in many years! It's surreal how much wilderness is here, as it's in the middle of a typical American suburb. Albeit one with a lot of history and economic importance (NASA, oil refineries, etc).. It was a peaceful late autumn walk! Even though it is technically the winter season ;). But autumn begins & finishes late here!

And I love the scene here with the red marsh! One of my favorite parts of the park! And so much other great wetlands! The 2,500-acre (10 km2) nature center is the largest urban wilderness preserve in the United States. Founded in 1974, the center consists of a boardwalk through forest and marshes, live animal displays, bison and prairie platforms and butterfly gardens.

Hyatt Place Houston Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We were looking for an affordable hotel close to Daikin park to see the Savannah Bananas. The hotel was beautiful and clean, the service was excellent, and the location was perfect. It was an easy short walk to the park. We parked in the public parking garage attached to the hotel, and it was $20 for 24 hours. Since we were walking to the game, we saved a ton on parking! We will definitely stay here again when in the area. We checked out early, so we didn’t get to eat the continental breakfast, but it was nice to have it included. "
