Hey y'all!
This week, I'm going to Galveston for a work conference and we stayed at Moody Gardens Hotel, Spa and Convention Center. I can't begin to describe how cool this place, and I didn't even get to do much of the cool stuff they offer on-site! The property consists of the hotel, which houses a spa, several restaurants on site, three pyramids filled with various activities for patrons to participate in, a water park, on-site pool, indoor lap pool, gym, the convention center, and so much more.
We were all had our own rooms and, as a parent who rarely travels alone, it was pretty sweet (although I missed my family so much!). While staying at the hotel and attending the conference, I had the chance to checkout one of the restaurants on-site, Cafe in the Park. As always, I got a burger - The Southern. It was this delicious burger with bacon, pimento cheese, fried tomatoes, buttermilk ranch, and mixed greens. I'm not a fan of tomatoes, but the friend tomatoes that are a part of this burger are a delicious addition to a great burger! The gift shop also holds a small Starbucks, which offers a great limited menu.
We also had the chance to explore some of Galveston. We ate at a few local restaurants as well as walked around not far from the bar. There were many areas that's greatly reminded me of the French Quarter on a (rare) quiet night.
After my quick trip for this conference, this somewhere I think I'd visit again with my family. I'd love to check out the attractions housed at Moody Gardens, take my wife to the beach, and take advantage of the little taste of New Orleans it gave me.
As always, thanks for taking the time to read this blog and I look forward to share more about Galveston in the future!
Thanks yall!
