Break-Down
Recommended to have at least $3,000 available for the trip.

You could thoroughly explore the Main Street area in 3 days but we would definitely recommend taking at least 4. The zoo itself took 5 hours and we didn't visit any one area very long. Most of the venues close around 6 with the last call being around 4. While this is very annoying, it allows for a very relaxed night life. As long as the weather is good and you are in decent shape, you can walk to almost everywhere. The park has many areas that we did not make it to, including a paddle boat rental area to allow you to cruise around on the pond. There are at least a dozen museums but we aren't exactly sure they are all in the area of the Natural Museum of Science and the Butterfly Museum we planned on visiting. We stayed in the Crowne Plaza Medical Center and would recommend it for the week days but not for the weekends.

We didn't make it to the Gulf of Mexico but you could make it on the 4th day...I'd expect to pay at least $60 for a round trip cab ride. It might be worth renting a car.

My Pledge As you may notice in the many articles to come, I absolutely can not stand people that have an opinion about something they know very little about or didn't take the time to research before giving their opinion. I pledge that I will not write a single article about a subject that I don't know enough about to see several sides of the issue. If you think I am missing something, I'd love to be the first to know about it. Other Stuff The opinions expressed in these articles are for discussion purposes only and do not, in anyway, reflect the opinions, voting practices or ideas of Findawish.com, its parent company, its employees and/or their families/friends or its affiliates. Public input is welcome but no response is guaranteed. I am often asked why I don't write a new article every single day. The short answer is that I don't have that much to say. I have quite a few articles that will never be posted because I either feel that I don't know enough about the subject or that I can't defend my stance well enough to allow it to be criticized or critiqued by the general public. If you really want to know how I feel about these articles you should read the source section of my rules to live by articles.
