Magnolia, Texas

    Today we decided to take a little trip to Magnolia, Texas. As we were driving through Magnolia, we visited lots of places and saw lots of things and sorted out the top 5 reasons to visit Texas, like battlefield sites such as The Alamo and Battlefield Texas, their wonderful texan BBQ, the excellent weather, the friendly people, and the world’s biggest rodeo.
    If you've been reading this blog, you will know that after top five reasons comes the top 5 facts so here they are! Texas is the only state that has been owned by six countries: Spain, France, Mexico, republic of Texas, Confederate States and the United States. They have a ranch bigger than Rhode Island that is called King Ranch. Did you know that Austin is the live music capitol of the world? Texas comes from the Native American word, friend. The first word spoken on the moon was Houston due to the fact that NASA Command Center is there.
    After top 5 facts is fun things to do in the state. In this state, some fun things to do are go to San Antonio, walk down River Walk, go to Fiesta Texas theme park, visit to beaches, explore museums, and relax by the lakes.  We loved seeing all the beautiful water!
    Since there were 11 kids and 1 teacher, we persuaded our teacher to drive us right to a Texan school so we could see what they like to do at recess. We asked 6 kids and they told us that they liked to play basketball, kickball, football, tag, sugar rush tag, and spider tag. Another good thing about Texas is that they are a big, friendly state. Here is something you should know if you are going to Texas. People in Texas are not that cowboyish, although they love their cowboy boots!
