Palm Beach at Moody Garden's in Galveston

Yesterday (sunday) we went to Moody Gardens in Galveston (http://www.moodygardens.com/). They have an area there that is a beach/pool area. We spent most of our time here. We also got there mid afternoon so by the time we got settled it was after 2pm. Hailey could not wait to play in the sand and go swimming. She was so excited. The pool is the walk in kind so she was able to walk in and out and not hit deep water right away. She was concentrating so hard playing in the sand. Such a big difference from last summer at the beach, last summer we had to sit in the sand and play with her where this time she played by herself. I forgot the camera so these were taken with the camera phone.


Playing in the sand....we had to keep getting her to sit under the umbrella.
Walking to the water to fill her bucket to get the sand more wet.

dumping the water....if we let her she would have done this the whole afternoon

Playing in the water....she loved it

Mommy and Hailey playing at the edge of the water...she had to make sure she was sitting ON the sand!

More playing in the sand and water.......

We went to see an Imax about Dinosaurs....Hailey did good but it was not keeping her attention. It was not really for little kids. We did not stay for the whole thing. She liked the big glasses.

Thanks for looking!
