Down by the water

Our view from our back window

Site #2

After we got off the ferry, we drove through Galveston. Hurricane Ike came through Sept of 2008 and we could see some damage still, but they look like they are almost back to normal. It  looks like a fun town to hang around, maybe next time.

Relaxing spot

We arrived at our next destination, our spot  almost right on the beach! We loved this spot! It's a Motel/RV park. The owner built it right after Hurricane Ike, so it's only about 2 years old. He gave us our choice of sites. Site #1 is the most popular and the most expensive, so we took Site#2, in hopes no one would take #1. Which they didn't and we had a great view!!
We turned our chairs around, so we could just marvel in the beauty of the Gulf and listen to the constant roar of the waves, soooooo relaxing!
How can you beat this?

Turn chairs around-Have morning coffee-How relaxing!

 We wanted to try the local fare, so we went to a recommended eatery.  Vel got the shrimp/chips and I got the fish/chips.  We did take-out because we wanted to bring it back home, so we could take in more of the view.  Both were good.
Time for morning walk

The dogs loved the beach, so many new smells.
We reluctantly had to move on, but we will definitely try to get back! Later-M
