Anyhoo... we found a vacation home in Galveston (4 br, 4 bath) so it was nice for all of us to have our own spaces. We had SUCH a GREAT time! We were there for 7 days and it was perfect! I wasn't quite ready to leave... or not even nearly ready to leave! But, duty calls and we've gotta make a living and go back to work.
So, here are a BUNCH (as usual)
Here's the beach house we stayed at that was at a resort.
The view from the back upper deck
Living Room view
Kitchen
The Beach Club (where one of the pools was... and ping pong, beach, and a lot of other stuff that we didn't really do)
At the bottom of the MANY stairs to the beach club
Day 1 at the beach
Johnathan and Julia the day they got there... before heading to the beach
Steve napping out on the deck
It was sad to see some of the damage that is still there from Hurricane Ike. Here are a few pics...
This was a pier that was destroyed in Hurricane Ike
The driveway that was the access to get to the Flagship Hotel
The Flagship
Our first full day there (technically the morning of day 2) we went grocery shopping for the week! We cooked all the meals and ate out twice. We had 3 buggies full of groceries! It was some Gooooood Eatin'!
One of the nights we went to Salsa's for dinner. It was very good! Here we are there...
After Salsa's we all went on the ferry. We saw dolphins a few times, but I didn't get any pics of it.
This was taken as we were driving 50mph down the road! I thought it turned out great!
One evening we went to the beach club to swim and play some ping pong.
Cousin love! (Malory and Julia)
When you ask Morgan to show you "The Face"... this is what you get:
Mallory showing "The Face" too:
We went to Murdocks to buy some gifts/junk... here are the kids looking at the hermit crabs with Brad and Jason
I tried to get a pic of the kiddos on the seawall... but the wind was INSANE, so all the pics have the girls hair in their faces!
We went to the strand one day so here are several shots from being there...
Feeding the horse
Showing how high the water line was from Hurricane Ike
Having lunch at Gaido's one day
Julia wrote my name & B-Mom's name
Lastly, we took family pics while we were there... here are just a few...
Welp... that's it! I'm ready for our next vacation!!!
