Gulf Fishing

[comfortable]

If you are going to do Galveston Bay fishing, the guides often go out of the Texas City Pier or around that area.

I normally stay around Kemah. The boardwalk is fun for the kids and they have a good variety of eating places there.

If you haven't taken a tour of Johnson Space Center, it's worth the time:

If you get a chance, visit the San Jacinto Battleground and Battleship Texas. Then eat at The Monument Inn. They have the best pan fried shrimp on the world.

I have a friend who owns two small one bedroom apts right on SeaWall Blvd. They are literally right across the street from the beach! Send me an email: Karen@kingdaily.com.

I hope you caught a fish with some boobs!

We go every year in Destin and its about $150-$200 per person for about a 6-8 hour trip. All day runs you about $300.

And no refunds if you don't have your sea legs and sea stomach.

I can say, without a shred of doubt, this describes the worst day of my entire life. Especially when you realize that you're already violently ill and still have 8 more hours to go. Good times.
