The Friday of Memorial day weekend and the day after the last day of school, we loaded up the camper and drove 4 hours to Freeport, Tx. It's just west of Galveston, and I have to admit, I love it way more than Galveston! Galveston is busy and crowded, but Freeport is a little hidden gem of houses and beach. We booked 2 spots at Blue Water RV because my brother's family was joining us for the weekend.
We drove until the map turned blue, set up the camp site, and hit the pool.
Priorities.
Okay, the water was cold, and the campground pool was not huge or deep. It's great for young kids, or just sitting in the water, but definitely not the best size for the size of the campground; it's a good thing there's a beach right across the street!
They were giving out free snow cones so that was a win.
After some pool time, we walked over to the beach. Now, I have only been to two other Texas beaches, but I've never seen a Rattlesnake warning on any beach I've ever been to. Thankfully, we didn't see any rattlesnakes are our entire trip.
There was lots of gymnastics though, lots of girl chats, lots of shell hunting.
The girls found several shells they wanted to bring back with them, so we walked back to the campground (it was right across the street.)
and we found a crab! We thought somehow it had crawled out of one of the shells, but turns out, they were just all over the campsite!
After beach time and crab spotting, we had burgers for dinner.
and s'mores for dessert.
We were ready for bed and day 2!
