Galveston Trip

We took a much needed vacation last week. It was great to only have to drive an hour and be at the beach. We did a lot of relaxing on the beach and eating good food. Just the right speed for a family with a newborn.


Nicholas hanging out on the beach.

We went to the Rainforest Cafe. Of course the food was pretty mediocre, but Robert had a great time.





Robert tried for half and hour to fill the moat his dad built around his sand castle. He would pour the water in and then say "more water!" and then run to get more. By the time he got back the water would have soaked in, but Robert wouldn't give up until we finally had to leave.

Nicholas was less than impressed with the beach but he was a trooper.

We went to Palm Beach at Moody Gardens one day.



Nicholas did not like the cold water.

This was as far as he got in the water.



We went on a tour of the bay to see dolphins. Robert makes friends wherever he goes so the Captain let him "drive" the boat.

What a fun trip! I would love to take the boys to Rainforest Cafe, but there are none anywhere close to us!
