Galveston Ahead of Ice

Jim and I drive to Galveston this morning to avoid the icy weather predicted for tomorrow. Cruise leaves Wednesday, so we have time to explore. Sacred Heart Catholic Church and the Bishop's Palace are high on our list, also the seawall, beach, harbor, old homes, etc.

Dinner is at Fisherman's Wharf, table at the window, watching daylight end over the water. On the way back to the hotel, we see the lights of historic Pleasure Pier.

Finally, our balcony becomes a perfect spot for viewing the volcano erupting. After a couple of photos, I hustle inside to appreciate the warmth.
