Fair Park Museums/Aquarium

I believe the Aquarium there is closed until renovations are completed. Besides, that aquarium is a waste of time compared to the one Downtown.

omg those museums and aquarium are the saddest things I've ever seen. Dinosaurs built from car bumpers outside the natural history museum... classy. There are more fish in a mall pet store than in that aquarium.

Dallas Sucks, head 30 minutes west to Fort Worth. Some of the best museums in the country and plenty of attractions.
Go to the following link: Fort Worth

The Japanese gardens in Fort Worth are cool.

Deep Ellum in Dallas has some great nightlife.

Also go to Medievel Times in Dallas. That place is great! Jousting shows, swordfighting, and dinner. Great entertainment.

Harry Hines/NW Highway topless clubs

I'd suggest Baby Dolls out of all the topless clubs on NW Highway :)

American Airlines Center is very nice. While you're at it, just stroll around downtown - it's not all that super duper or anything but you might as well since you're at the AAC. Speed Zone off 35 & Royal (if you don't have one near you). Bass Pro Shop off 121 & FM2499 in Grapevine, might as well visit Grapevine Mills while you're at it too. Texas Stadium and The Ballpark in Arlington are good places to visit too. If you like cars go visit the Texas Motorplex in Ennis (that the right name, I dunno) off of 45. Wizards is a good sports bar imho.

Damn, I almost forgot Medievil times! That place roxors! (It's near downtown off 35) Be prepared though - no silverware

there are hot girls in houston, but there's also plenty in dallas. nightlife in dallas though is much better, although Houston has a few places I like.
