Kemah Boardwalk today with Rob, Helen, their granddaughter Tess, and five other friends and family members (Rob & Helen's, not mine).  This is an amusement park about 30 miles away, on the coast, so right on the waterfront.  Beautiful spot, great fun for the kids - we all ate at Landry's- mainly seafood on the menu - then walked around.  I was introduced to DippinDots - tiny balls of ice cream in a cup - and Helen and I explored the shops.

At the entrance to the Boardwalk (admission is free - you just pay for rides or games or food once you're on the grounds)

Fountain where there are remote control boats which you can sail

Landry's restaurant, where we ate a substantial lunch

View from our table!

And again. . . 

Double Decker carousel

Gotta love all those palm trees!
