Battleship Texas

On the way home from Galveston we decided to stop by the location of the Battleship Texas.  It's a fascinating naval vessel, having run a long stint from 1914 to 1948.  It seems very well preserved.



Sitting in the gun seat.





The bunks.  Talk about claustrophobia!


The barber!


The soda shop.


The whole things was just fascinating!


After the ship we headed north of Houston and had lunch with some friends.  I realized I got a picture of the kiddos and not one of me and Cindy!!  Oh well, we had a fun time with Cindy and her girls.  Cindy's sister, Julie lives in Czech Republic and we met Cindy the last time we were in the States.  This was the first time our kiddos had met and they hit it off!


Silly girls not wanting their picture taken.


 So much so that Kendall hopped in our car, determined to go with us!!  Her mom later told me she was crying in the car on the way home!  So sad and sweet all wrapped up in one!

It was a good trip, but nice to get back and get in the swing of things.
