Girls Trip: Camping at the Beach

2025

For our Spring break last year, Elena and I decided that we were going to the beach. The boys and husband had school the week we were off so I booked a one night camping grounds stay at the Galveston State Park website. We headed out with our camping gear, our swimsuits, a dog, and some food just hoping for the best

We packed the dog, our wagon, our toys, filled up our tank and headed south. When we got to the state park, we noticed it was celebrating 50 years so we took advantage of a photo op!

Once our cute little setup was complete, we slapped on our swimsuits and headed out to the water!

Since this is a state park, dogs cannot be without a leash. Our doggo did quite well, except when Elena would go into the water where he would yelp and whine for her non-stop. I guess he wanted to join!

After a whole day of fun, we went out west in order to find a good restaurant to fill our bellies. I found Sandbar not too far! I knew we visited the right place when I saw this pelican with a pink shirt.

Ceviche and Gumbo was our jam! I was also admiring how sunburnt I had gotten!

I had bought some specially made adhesive patches for our cute little tent, after all, the thing is ancient. (probably from the early 2000's) and hoped for the best! It's was soon to be lights out.

We woke up in a sticky humid tent, with the sky visible above us! The ground was wet. There was nothing left to do but wait for the sun to come up to dry everything.
