We enjoyed another free breakfast (waffles in the shape of Texas) before heading out at 9 o'clock. It was cloudy when we left and by the time we got to Houston it was showers on and off. It became hot and muggy through the day with a high of around 80f.
Looking at the map of Houston I thought it would be worst than what it was to go through. There was a slow down area for about 11 miles and that was it. I think we timed it right to go through (about 10).
Houston
The land we crossed was still pretty flat and there seem to be no large trees just short types and scrub brush.
Lake Texana
We arrived in Aransas Pass at 3:15. The Resort is on a bay which is seperated by the San Jose Island from the Gulf of Mexico and is beside a marina. It is about 21 miles from Corpus Christi.
No sooner were we parked and getting settled in, when a neighbour came over and we talked for 1/2 an hour about the area, the resort and places he had travelled. After he left the neighbour next door came over and talked for another 1/2 hour about her sick husband and her travels. People are very friendly here. We mentioned we were going to wash the coach tomorrow, it is very dirty from the travels and rains we have been traveling through and she offered us the use of her spare hose, nozzle and a battery operated wand with a rotating brush on the end. I will be checking it out tomorrow to see how well it works. This park has 128 sites and is pretty well full. We took a quick walk around and I believe we are the only Canadians. We are here until Saturday and noticed the resort is having their Christmas parade then.
Cathy shot this sunset late in the evening.
