Galveston, Oh Galveston

All I knew about Galveston was the song by Glen Campbell. We spent quite a bit of time there and liked it.

Crossing the bridge ($2 feet each way) from San Luis Island to Galveston Island.
Sign as soon as you go through the toll booth. A bit confusing as it takes 30 minutes to get there.
Houses on stilts….
….miles and miles of them….
…and oh-so-beautiful…
Seawall BLVD with a walkway which runs for 10 miles!!! Beautiful!!
Beach view of stilt houses….
…and more except on this island you can’t drive on the beach – it is blocked off….
…on both sides…
East beach on the far tip of the island….
…a very windy day…
….but beautiful…
Freighter entering Galveston Bay. So much freight moves in and out here.
Driving back to our side over the bridge, watching the sun set.
