It's HOT in Houston

This morning I was up bright and early for my flight to Houston. Headed down to free breakfast to test out the stomach after not being too well. Able to eat yoghurt and a banana, I jumped on the airport shuttle and got to the airport early. The first flight was back to Denver as that is where Southwest Airlines hub is. In the airport, an older guy sparked up a conversation when he heard my accent. He told me his daughter was headed to USYD to study, so we were chatting about that. The flight was easy, only had about 40 minute layover so had a bagel and a coffee also called Stacy as the boys wanted to talk to me which was so sweet. The next flight was longer but went quickly as well.
Then finally I was in Houston! Got my bags and walked outside... Well it was about 37 degrees and humid, a bit of a change from the other stops...
Hannah, my former UK teammate picked me up and it was so lovely to see them. We drove to their house and it is such a cute open space. They have decorated it so well. I met their two cats, Hops and Simcoe (the type of hops they use for their beer). Simcoe is super friendly but Hops is a bit more standoffish.
We then headed to the Post which was a former post office building, but now it is a food court. There were so many places to eat, from South African, South American, Indian, Mexican and everything in between. Hannah and I split some chicken/rice dish and a fatti (an Indian taco) which went down well. We then headed to Frost Town Brewery which is the brewery that John and Hannah own. The space was MASSIVE with indoor and outdoor areas. They showed me where they brew, can and work in the space. It's honestly incredible what they have built in less than a year! I then got to try their award winning Frostbier - a Kolsch, which was great. I sat at the bar while Hannah and John worked, chatting with their bar tenders, Jacob and Clara who were awesome. There was a baseball game so it got quite busy for a Wednesday, it was fun to watch all the people come by.
It was then time for trivia, I sat with a bunch of regulars some of whom are Hannah's friends. They were such a clever bunch and all really friendly. Trivia was insanely hard, John runs it with a friend and I knew little to nothing. The night went quickly and I found myself exhausted from a long day. We finally went home and I fell asleep very quickly.Read more
