Checking out Corpus Christi
















We only had 1 afternoon to check out Corpus Christi and we were so tired but we did enjoy the few hours we spent there. After visiting the aquarium, then Tony and I drove down to the harbor. The boats that are docked here are all so beautiful and there were all kinds and sizes! We found a REALLY NEAT Joe's Crab Shack to have a late lunch at. It sat out over the water in the harbor. It was a 2 story Joe's Crab Shack with an elevator. How neat is that!!!! We also saw Selena's beautiful statue that was over looking out across the harbor. For those who don't know who Selena is, she was an amazing Tejano singer/entertainer who was from Corpus Christi. Her manager of her fan club (I believe) shot her and killed her at a motel there in CC several years ago. She was a wonderful singer and is dearly missed by her fans.

Texas State Aquarium Corpus Christi
















I am finally back to my "normal life" after several days of vacationing at the beach in Port Aransas and Corpus Christi. Christina and I had a great time and I think we got some good shots during this trip. I will be sharing a few of my favorites that I took over the next few days on my blog page so stay tuned..........

First up are a few from the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi. I enjoyed the whole aquarium but my favorite part was the dolphins. I LOVE dolphins and could have stayed at this exhibit for the whole entire time!!!! Maybe someday I will get to swim with the dolphins again like I did at Cozumel a few years ago.
