Galveston TX


WE LOVED Galveston!! Our campsite was perfect for us....right by the water.

This city was a wealthy community at the turn of the century, with many mansions and a castle. We toured the castle, which had 28,000 sq. ft. of living space. Slightly unbelieveable.

The Moody Mansion, which we also toured, reminded us of an office building in some ways, and was sold in the early 1900s for $20,000.

A great 2-day stay, but much too short.

Max enjoyed this RV park, as well. New grounds to mark and explore.

Another adventure we took while here was a tree sculpture parade that residents had created from the trees destroyed in Hurricane Ike 3 years ago.
