【一日遊】One Day Field Trip, Houston Downtown Tunnel & Sam Houston Park

時間：三月二十八日，星期三, 上午八點三十分到下午四點三十分

內容：你知道休士頓市中心的地下道有多熱鬧嗎？有許多各式各樣的商店、餐館、糕餅店，並且四通八達。要上去參觀文化，古蹟，公司，銀行大樓，或豪華旅館大廈，都不必橫越馬路，非常安全，悠閒，方便。許多同鄉在休士頓住了三，四十年都未曾去走過，這次特別安排此行，以讓大家開開眼界，也讓大家更知道休士頓市中心之美。

除了市中心的地下道之外，我們也會參觀市中心幾處很有趣的景點，包括休士頓的發源地 Allen’s Landing 和 Buffalo Bayou，Wortham Center 旁的 Seven Wonders Sculptures，Smith Street 旁建築非常漂亮的 Julia Ideson Building (Old Library) 以及充滿中東色彩的 Phoenicia Market。若還有時間，我們也會參觀市政府旁邊的Sam Houston Park。

 這次一日遊約有一百分鐘步行的時間，若有行動不便者，我們不建議參加。
(會員10元，非會員20元，午餐自付)

Did you know how busy the Houston Downtown Tunnel is? It is a far-reaching network with a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and bakeries. Whether you want to visit cultural sites, historical sites, businesses, banks, or luxury hotels, you can safely do so without crossing any roads. It’s a leisurely and convenient way to get around, but many have lived in Houston for 30 or 40 years without ever using these tunnels. We’ve specially arranged this trip to allow everyone to gain some insight on them and learn about the beauty of Houston Downtown.  After visiting the tunnels, We will go visiting some interesting places which include Allen’s Landing and Buffalo Bayou，Seven Wonders Sculptures (next to Wortham Center)，Beautiful Julia Ideson Building (the Old Library)next to Smith Street, and  the Phoenicia Market。We may also visit Sam Houston Park if we have enough time.  We might spent about 100 minutes of walking around during this day trip, so if anyone who could not walk for too long, we do not recommended you to participate this time.

Cost: Members $10, non-members $20. Lunch fee is not included. You will get $ 2 discount if registered online
