Timothy and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend on Galveston Island. We went to Moody Gardens to visit the Rain Forest Exhibit, the Aquarium and the IMax. We got to see a ton of parrots, sharks, and our favorite- PENGUINS! We also got to see the Gulf of Mexico! We had so much fun, we really didn’t want to leave.

One reason we went to Galveston was for some R&R.  So we stayed at a beautiful B&B. We really enjoyed our stay at Avenue O. Connie, the owner was so nice and made an awesome breakfast. It was better than any restaurant.  Not only that, but the rooms are amazing! We stayed in the Rain forest room that had a very cool jacuzzi and a super comfy bed! Check out their website for more info, we highly recommend Avenue O B&B.  http://www.avenueo.com/
