With busy work (and Ironman training) schedules, we weren't sure what we were going to do for spring break and waited until the last minute (we're talking day of) to make any decisions. It turned out great!
On Tuesday, we stayed in Houston and travelled down to Battleship Texas (which happened to be getting ready for its centennial celebration). We kept the destination a surprise from the kids and it was a lot of fun to see both of the kids' eyes light up when they saw the battleship. That afternoon we stopped by the Houston Zoo.
The next morning we got up and decided to drive to Corpus Christi. When we got there, we went to the Texas State Aquarium which is right on the bay. The kids enjoyed seeing the dolphins, the bald eagle, the sea turtle, and touching the stingrays and the shark. The next day we visited the USS Lexington (two warships in 3 days!) and the next day we visited the beach at Mustang Island State Park and had lunch in Port Aransas before we took the ferry across the channel and headed home. All in all, it was a very fun trip with lots of memories. For more photos, click on the top photo above.
