Narrative:
Due to the original winds of 220 degrees at 12 KTS gusting 23 KTS (if I remember exactly), they switched the landing runway to runway 22. This is very rare to land on runway 22 at hobby, and I have never done that before. My landing was uneventful. We turned off at H2 intersection, switched to ground, and he told us to taxi via hotel, taxiway microphone, and taxiway delta to the ramp. (This is like uncharted ground, to taxi on this side of the airport.) the captain immediately said with authority/authorized, 'I know the route!' I was doing my after landing flow when the captain said he went the wrong route and had gone straight on hotel and missed the left turn on microphone. We were just entering the intersection of runway 12L and taxiway hotel, when he told me this. I immediately told the ground controller we missed the turn and asked if we could taxi straight ahead to the ramp? The controller seemed unconcerned, and it was approved. Thankfully, runway 12L was not an active runway at that time. I was disappointed in myself, and I should have verified the route given on the chart with where our progression of taxi was (of which I normally always do), but the captain said 'I know the route' and I believed him. Especially since he has around 15 yrs experience flying in and out of hobby. Another mistake of mine is, that I concentrated too much on the 'after landing flow' duties. Next time (as I normally do), fly the plane first, even when you are taxiing.

Title: B737-300 CREW HAD RWY INCURSION ON RWY 12L AT TXWY H, AND TXWY INCURSION ON TXWY H, AFTER LNDG ON RWY 22 AT HOU.
Narrative: DUE TO THE ORIGINAL WINDS OF 220 DEGS AT 12 KTS GUSTING 23 KTS (IF I REMEMBER EXACTLY), THEY SWITCHED THE LNDG RWY TO RWY 22. THIS IS VERY RARE TO LAND ON RWY 22 AT HOBBY, AND I HAVE NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE. MY LNDG WAS UNEVENTFUL. WE TURNED OFF AT H2 INTXN, SWITCHED TO GND, AND HE TOLD US TO TAXI VIA HOTEL, TXWY MIKE, AND TXWY DELTA TO THE RAMP. (THIS IS LIKE UNCHARTED GND, TO TAXI ON THIS SIDE OF THE ARPT.) THE CAPT IMMEDIATELY SAID WITH AUTH, 'I KNOW THE RTE!' I WAS DOING MY AFTER LNDG FLOW WHEN THE CAPT SAID HE WENT THE WRONG RTE AND HAD GONE STRAIGHT ON HOTEL AND MISSED THE L TURN ON MIKE. WE WERE JUST ENTERING THE INTXN OF RWY 12L AND TXWY HOTEL, WHEN HE TOLD ME THIS. I IMMEDIATELY TOLD THE GND CTLR WE MISSED THE TURN AND ASKED IF WE COULD TAXI STRAIGHT AHEAD TO THE RAMP? THE CTLR SEEMED UNCONCERNED, AND IT WAS APPROVED. THANKFULLY, RWY 12L WAS NOT AN ACTIVE RWY AT THAT TIME. I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN MYSELF, AND I SHOULD HAVE VERIFIED THE RTE GIVEN ON THE CHART WITH WHERE OUR PROGRESSION OF TAXI WAS (OF WHICH I NORMALLY ALWAYS DO), BUT THE CAPT SAID 'I KNOW THE RTE' AND I BELIEVED HIM. ESPECIALLY SINCE HE HAS AROUND 15 YRS EXPERIENCE FLYING IN AND OUT OF HOBBY. ANOTHER MISTAKE OF MINE IS, THAT I CONCENTRATED TOO MUCH ON THE 'AFTER LNDG FLOW' DUTIES. NEXT TIME (AS I NORMALLY DO), FLY THE PLANE FIRST, EVEN WHEN YOU ARE TAXIING.
