It's the best (in combination with reading reviews like you mentioned). Then you really get a sense of where things are in proximity to each other. I actually found my new apartment in downtown Chicago by doing this...forget Craigslist, brokers, real estate companies - I like to go straight to the source!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381665907308029581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-9629583860606629032016-07-28T18:36:50.653-07:002016-07-28T18:36:50.653-07:00I live in Houston and I think you hit most of my f...I live in Houston and I think you hit most of my favorite spots! I have the exact same reaction to the Rothko chapel - I know it's supposed to be serene, but I find it awfully dark... Next time you are here you should check out the Rice Village - fun window shopping and lots of great restaurants!!!Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333375392136704618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-45622525038332767732016-07-12T06:39:37.086-07:002016-07-12T06:39:37.086-07:00So glad you enjoyed your time in Texas.

Maybe see if your airline has something similar offered? I usually rent from Enterprise, just because they are what I'm used to, but Dollar was just as nice (nicer, actually - we reserved the cheapest car option and they gave us a Prius C, which saved us a bunch on gas) and definitely cheaper. We had the car from Friday afternoon - Tuesday morning and the total bill with taxes and everything was just $45.
