Hi,
Sape sini pernah pegi Houston? Ape yg menarik di sane? |
|

dah pernah gi.. big city, tapi cam tak banyak attraction yg best.. kalo minat psl space & Nasa, buleh la gi Houston Space Center.. tempat ni best tapi kene ade transportation sendiri sbb 45 min driving from houston. ade gak bus gi Houston Space Center ni, tapi very limited.. kalo minat shopping, leh gi galleria ..
me rase San Antonio lagi best dr houston. San Antonio ni ala2 little venice kat US.. banyak mende leh wat kat sini .. buleh lawat The Alamo, lepak2 or naik boat kat riverwalk, naik tower of americas, gi seaworld, naik rollercoaster kat six flags.. tapi yg paling best riverwalk ngan the alamo ... |

kalau ada kete bule drive gi galveston, ada aquarium..but x der benda sgt la..
sopping..kedai2 belakang n tepi galleria pun ok jugak... better priced |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and sure org mention abt katy..kat situ ada outlet mall... but kedai x brapa best..if compared ngan outlet2 lain kat US..but bule laa.. |
|
|
|
|
|
|

hmm.. in other words, Houston ni is not tourist attraction. not much to do there.. sbb hubby nak gi sane for work. ingat nak tumpang ikut. tapi 2 weeks ddk hotel ngan my 2yr old pon boring ni nanti.. |

suka houston,although bahaya sikit sbb traffic busy dan ada kes tembak pedestrian.Tapi sana safe juga sbb polis ramai n kdg2 muncul je bila kita tak stop pd stop sign.Makanan tak susah sana sbb ada halal food,arab store n makanan asian kat vietnam n hongkong market.
Betul tu san santonio seronok di lawati sbb byk shopping centre,ada park especially spring cantik2 dan besar size bunganya.Tapi houston selepas bulan 4 panasnya mcm india,scorching hot.
Kalau uptown happening di galleria,kalau downtown byk street mall.Ada satu tpt plantation house bagus di lawat ,lanscape dan architecture spt zaman slavery dulu.
Selalunya kalau stay for 2 weeks tinggallah di suite or studio room ada kitchenette.Boleh masak makanan sendiri,beli di s/market ,brg2 pun tak mahal sgt.The price is reasonable.Kalau rasa boring ada byk tpt outlet murah2.Kalau tinggal di marriot ,just across ada shopping mall.Naik cab pun selamat sbb cabdriver ramainya org pakistan or black moslem.Kalau pekerja pula ramai mexican yg baik2.Selalunya bila dihouston sampaije terus sewa kereta,lebih convenient.Utk lebih mudah sewa sekali navigator sebagai guide supaya kita tak akan sesat,kalau sesat pun secara automatic akan di tunjuk jln keluar.
Nak gi mana2 tpt kita just call operator dan beritau destinasi then guide akan tunjuk arah.Abm ada bawa toddler ya,ada babyRus di sana baju baby dan toddler comel n cute sgt.
Well enjoy ur trip... |

teringat solat jumaat di masjid(pagi tpt solat wanita jadi tadika) di houston(dah lupa nama tpt)tapi back fm masjid singgah kat hong kong market.Berjemaah dgn pelbagai bangsa seronok n lepas tu mereka jual lunch usually set kebab dgn coke.Masjid indon pun ok ramai la jumpa sebangsa pastu ada lunch makanan kita.
Not sure abt 5 mths preg,sbb ada indon fren 4mth preg pun pakai jacket utk cover her tummy.Tapi ada kawan 6mths preg cover dgn jacket n perut dia tak nampak sgt dpt travel.

abm..long mmg expert abt houston...can get good info fm her...on the way to austin ada Pecan shop...sampai skrg teringat caramel pecan n jalapeno pecan flavored.Tpt lain mmg tak jumpa pecan yg sedap,cuma bila beli kena baca ingredients.Yg boleh di beli perasa caramel,jalapeno dan perasa original.Pecan pie nampak sedap tapi sbb rasa was2 tenguk jerlah.
Kalau masa spring suka gi san antoniio park bunga2 ros cantik2
Cuma nak tanya long kat mana highland village tu?Kalau traders village 2-3kali pegi sbb suka gi pasar tani aka mlm dorangni.Dpt beli tshirt murah2 utk souvenir. |

to all my new found frens.. tq 4 d advise..
i tak dpt pegi houston.. hubby pegi sorang. insyallah next weekend.. smlm baru call us embassy, check about pregnant woman being allowed to go in. die org ckp, can go.. but there is a possibility that the customs might not let me in.. all will depend on the immigration customs kat airport. all will depend on their discretion... tak pe la.. tak de rezeki. sbnrnye, my cousin advise i pegi check dulu..
long, klu next month ni.. still sejuk lagi la yekk..? err.. kene pakai baju winter coat ke?
anyway, kat Houston ni what can we can get cheaper compared to KL? Coach handbags? hehehe.. i ni peminat designer's handbags/shoes..Ferragamo..biase le org pompuan.. baju baby/toddler pon ingat nak beli.. tapi ape kan daya, tak dpt ikut. so, hubby kene tlg shopping. can anyone advise mane nak pegi? so, bole inform hubby. :tq: |

kenape possibility immigresen tak kasik pregnant women masuk US?
kalo carik coach murah sket , suggest gi outlet..
kat galleria ade gak kedai coach, tapi rasenye time skarang ni tak de sale..
lagi satu, kalo nak beli handbag murah2 cam Liz Clairborne, Nine West, D&B, Aigner, gi Marshall store..
slalunye brg2 kat Marshall 1/2 price dr harge retail.. |

ni jwp nye..
"Although there are no specific regulations prohibiting pregnant foreign nationals from entering the U.S., entry is allowed or denied at the discretion of the admitting CBP officer. If the CBP officer determines that you are likely to become a ward of the government (meaning that the government must provide medical care because you do not have medical coverage while visiting the U.S.), you can be denied entry. When determining if you will be allowed to enter the U.S., CBP officers take into consideration the date your child is due for delivery and the length of time you intend to stay in the U.S. In addition, they want evidence that you have sufficient medical insurance to cover any medical necessities while you are in the U.S. If it is determined that you do not have sufficient medical insurance to cover any unexpected or expected medical care while in the U.S., you can be denied entry. Additionally, if you are pregnant and entering the U.S. at a border port of entry via vehicle, be aware the radiation detection portals deployed at the ports do not emit any radiation, and do not present a hazard to you and your unborn child. Coming to the U.S. for the purpose of child birth is not a valid reason for travel. "
mase i call US embassy die kate anyway, sume ni bergantung pd budi bicara kastam US mase nak enter.. walau pon ade insuran sume.. i pon rase malas nak pegi, klu dah ade kebarangkalian mcm ni.. |

abm...kalau nak shopping kat houston..cam Tshirt yg murah2..pegi la Ross..sini boleh dapat dlm US5-00 dan kena rajin membelekla...selain tu macam Marshall, TJMax ok juga... nasib baik dpt designer brand tak kira baju /kasut/henbeg ke atau pingganmangkuk
kalau kat houston paling dekat factory outlet mall kat Katy Mills...dlm 35 - 40 minit dari downtown Houston (kalau tak jam la) kat sini pon ok juga, banyak brand yg bagus esp. american brands of clothing..dlm ni juga ada Neiman Marcuss dan Saks Fifth Avenue outlet juga..
kalau suami abm ada masa...spend la sehari dua kat San Marcos (kalau nak ronda sumer kedai..1 hari rasanyer x cukup sebab shopping area besar sekali)..San Marcos ini on the way ke San Antonio..(lupa la exit brapa..tapi tak susah cari..sebab signbod besar2 kat tepi highway tu bila dah dekat nak exit nanti) dan mmg tourist nyer tempat pon.. Haaaa! kat sini byk sket designers brand..cam Feragamo, Cole Hann, Coach, Tahari, Coach, Noritake, Mikasa, Royal Doulton, Wedgwood, macam2 lah..kalau nak henbeg Prada, Jimmy Choo, Fendi, Todd tinjau2 la kat Neiman Marcus or Saks Fifth Avenue.. .kalau bawak sedaramara kat sini buntang mata sumer!!!! |
