Stayed at the Holiday Inn in Galveston. Overlooked the ocean. Room was clean. Staff was friendly. Free parking, free shuttle to the ship. So far so good.
Got to the pier at 11:30. Checked in and waited to board the ship. Our number was called and we were greeted by name as we boarded the ship.
The Disney Wonder was smaller than other ships and a bit older. But.... It was gorgeous. Clean, tastefully decorated, and very easy to navigate.
We were only in Galveston for the night and part of the morning. But of course we had to play at the beach. It was a fun time.
Island is beautiful. We went swimming and walked and shopped. The art galleries were AMAZING. Fun vibe throughout the island.
Hubby and daughter did this together, while I swam. They enjoyed it.
This island is Paradise. My husband kept saying that he couldn't believe a place so gorgeous and clean and colorful actually exists. The sand was powder soft and white. The water turquoise. The foliage was bright and healthy. It was as close to Heaven-on-Earth as it gets.
My husband loved the run.
