Familia Farias: Grandma Lupe's Visit

Grandma Lupe came to visit this past week. We went down to Galveston and walked around at the strand, a street that has little shops and food, and other coo things! The first thing we happened upon was a HUGE chess set. It was pretty cool, Ryan "check mated" Angel several times, okay not really!! There was this really yummy looking candy store, but I resisted!! Maybe next time. There are carriages on the sides of the rode that will take you for a ride, we weren't interested, but the driver was very nice anyways. He let Ryan pet the horse, I was surprised that Ryan wanted to...usually he tends to shy away from animals that are bigger than him! Then we ate at Fisherman's Wharf, Ryan ate grilled chicken, salmon, and broccoli....who is this kid?! Our final stop was at the Bolivar Ferry. It was a neat experience, and it was free, but I wasn't prepared for the windy conditions. It took me an hour to get all of the tangles out of my hair!! From the ferry we could see SeaWolf Park, Ryan spotted the playground right away, but there was also a submarine....we're going to have to check that out next time. We also were lucky enough to catch a few glimpses of dolphins swimming near by. We weren't quick enough to get a photo, but it was pretty cool :)
