Ranch, tours and museums

 Yesterday, we went to try Texan barbeque with Alexandria and Kristen. After that, we went to visit the ranch.We were the only four in our tour group which made it even more enjoyable.

There were five main areas of interest where tour guides told us the history of the family that had begun the ranch. There were four houses to tour, with guides in period costume, and we got to see the cowboys working with the cattle on their horses. It was fascinating, and we all agreed that the story should be turned into a movie at some point.

Today, we travelled to Rosenburg to see the Assembly Hall there. It was suuuper big, and so well arranged as you can expect from the organisation. Every last detail was taken into consideration, down to the direction of the sun on brothers and sisters in the classes when they were writing!

The brother who took us on the tour knew so much, and I think we all learned a lot. It took about two hours, which is a lot longer than the tour normally lasts. The weather is still great, so afterwards we stood on the bridge and fed the ducks and fish.

We had lunch at "What A Burger"... Taris and I are still sharing portions because they're so huge.

Following lunch we headed off to the Houston Museum of Fine Art. I had a blast as we wandered through the galleries, and saw some beautiful pieces:) Taris, on the other hand, got kinda bored. Art is not her thing!

All in all, it's been a good two days.
