Jeff chasing Wesley through the water. We had quite a time keeping him from running into the waves. We didn't plan on going swimming, rather just walking in the water, but Wesley changed those plans pretty quickly! Good thing I packed an extra set of clothing for him.
Wesley LOVES the waves! He kept having vertigo because he'd be looking down as he walked or ran, tracking the ground, except the ground was moving! When the waves would come in he would move in and when the waves would rush out he would wind up running in toward the ocean with them.
Just a beautiful day at the beach!
A picture of me (to prove I was there). This was from the pier at Murdock's Gift Shop. They have this great seating area and overlook toward the ocean. It's just stunning!
Here's another view from the Murdock's lookout point.
And since we were in Galveston we had to go by LaKing's for one of their awesome ice cream shakes.
Jeff had a strawberry shake (too sweet, for the record), and Wesley and I shared a chocolate shake (YUMMY!!).
Me and my shake.
Wesley, as you might imagine, loved the shake.
Here's a picture of some of their gorgeous chocolates. This place is amazing. Note that these are $2.5o each!
Wesley playing with the crank on one of those penny flattening machines, the ones that press another image into a penny as a keepsake.
Jeff lifting Wesley up to touch the signs along the main street.
What a fun day! We're already planning our next trip and hopefully we'll get to show Wesley some of the gigantic cruise ships that dock.
