2/26/15 - We left the campground around 10:00 for Galveston, Texas. We had about 50 miles. We got to the Railroad Museum a little after 11:00 so we decided to eat our sandwiches in the car before going through the museum. It was very interesting and we got to walk several different train cars and most of them were very old. We then left for the ferry dock because there was a free car ferry that went to Port Bolivar Peninsula. On the way, we parked in the front and it was rough enough that the car got sprayed with salt water. We drove up and down the peninsula and then took the ferry back to the mainland. We stopped off at a McDonald's for ice cream and wasted some time since we had planned to have dinner in Galveston. We then found a car wash and also washed the car before heading for dinner. We ate at the Gumbo Diner right on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Here is a picture of fried Okra and my first taste of gumbo (chicken and sausage). It was very good. Aunt Esther had the fish tacos.
My dinner!!
