 What is normally a two and a half hour trip turned into a four hour trip because of the extremely long ferry line - |
 -but we got a front spot on the ferry boat. Michael and Bill check out the seagulls while Carol looks for dolphins |
 Finally, we reached the island - here's the boat basin. Deep sea fishing is a small industry in Port A. For more info, follow this helpful link from Austin. |
 We headed for our favorite gumbo restaurant - unfortunately, after a 40 minute wait for a table and a 20 minute wait for waitstaff, we heard the beach calling and left without ordering - suppose that sometimes happens in tourist season. |
 The beach was beautiful - waves, people of all shapes, colors, ages and sizes, and - kites. We especially liked the display of kites that featured the Texas flag |
 After driving down the beach for 10 or 12 miles, we found Our Spot. |
 Bill and Carol's amazing canopy set up in five minutes and defined our shelter from the sun |
 With no lunch yet, we were hungry - Bill and Michael took the seining net into the surf to see what they could catch - |
