Galavanting in Galveston

Benjamin & I enjoyed tagging along with Russ this week as he had a conference at the Moody Gardens Hotel/Convention Center on Galveston Island. His schedule was pretty full, however Benjamin & I enjoyed touring around on our own. Benjamin was fascinated by the penguins at the Moody Garden Aquarium. Walking along Seawall Blvd was nice - but very windey & a bit noisy from the traffic, hungry seagulls squawking & the ocean waves. The historic downtown part of Galveston had fun shops & this is where Benjamin learned to play chess. The beach was great - soft sand, quite clean & warm water. Considering our hotel room was paid for by Russ' company, it was a 'cheap' vacation!
