Perfect Weather
December 12 to December 14
The weather has been awesome ... low 70's F and sunny. Perfect for walking on the beach and lying on a lounge reading. We did manage to drag ourselves away from the park one day and go into Galveston to check out some of the sites. One of the “tourist places” is The Strand. This is the original downtown area of Galveston that is in the process of being restored and is the home to many interesting shops. We decided to have lunch at one of the bay side restaurants and opted to sit on the patio. The birds are pretty forward here .... one hopped on the table and took what was left of Ed’s bun. Lucky for the bird, Ed wasn’t planning on finishing the bun.
I don't think this lounge is meant for two!
Ah...... the beach.
A mid air catch!
Here mousy mousy...
The harbor from the restaurant patio.
Ed's crawfish tail po-boy
An "eye-catching" sign
One of the buildings on "The Strand"
Anyone want to play the trumpet?
Looking down "The Strand"
A ship that is part of the Sea Museum
