A Day In Galveston

Today was spent taking a drive down to Galveston, Texas for the day.

While there, we drove around and stopped for a snack at the Galveston Bagel Company. I had an onion bagel with lox and cream cheese. The lox was plentiful on two halves of the bagel. Mitch asked me how much did it cost. I told him it was $17. He about jumped out of his seat exclaiming, "What?! $17 for a bagel?!"

I looked at the receipt and the lox was $16 according to it. I told Mitch this and he thought that made more sense. It was quite good. 

We then went to a cigar store to pick up a couple of things. I managed to leave my debit card there. I discovered this at Buc-ee's and we went back and got it. We were looking for the cigar store when we discovered the Galveston Bagel Company.

Buc-ee's was huge and packed with people. There must have been close to 30 gasoline pumps there. This was the first time I have ever been to Buc-ee's.

We got into a downpour as we were nearing Houston. It looks to be a rainy night tonight.
