Things to do in Houston during the weekends

I like going to Kemah boardwalk. It is south on I-45 from Houston on the way to Galveston. Google Maps should be able to give you good directions. They have a lot of stuff there. A lot of it is just an open-air walking place near the water with a bunch of shops and restaurants. While you're down there, you might as well hit up Galveston as well.

Houston also has a lot of performing arts. Their art district is one of the best in the country and they also have a lot of bands that will play in local bars as well.

When my family comes to visit, we like to go to St. Arnold's brewery. St. Arnold's is a popular local beer, and they give a pretty cool tour of their facility and will even let you sample some of their beer after you're done!
