Dinner Cruise

We had an easy day this morning.  Picked up a few things and relaxed until about 2:30.  We then headed over to South Padre Island for a dinner cruise.  This had originally been booked through our RV resort, but there weren't enough signed up to make it strictly a Llano Grande cruise.  For the same price though, we could go on our own, so we did.

We left in plenty of time in order that we could explore a little.  The last point on the mainland is Port Isabel.  There's an historic lighthouse here.



Also, the largest fly fishing rod in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.



There's a bridge/causeway about 2 miles long called the Queen Isabella Memorial Bridge (the Spanish queen, I assume).



We landed on South Padre Island.  I guess these people had to get out of their vehicles to see where they were!



We checked in with the cruise and got our tickets, then went off to have a brew by the ocean.  The spring-breakers are all here, and they welcome them.  The place is busy.  It kills me to see this sign - ID and no alcohol if born after March 13, 1995!!!  Ugh.



Here we are on the sunset cruise.  We could take our own drinks.



We puttered northward up the shore while they served us shrimp appetizers then fajitas for dinner, and fruit for dessert.  All was tasty.  On the way back was the sunset.  It looked like this.



Then like this after another glass of wine.

Hee hee.

By the way, Tibby is doing much better.  Still not back to normal, but certainly much better than he was.  We'll see what the next couple of days bring.
