Mustang Island and Magnolia Beach, TX

Mustang Island… just north of Padre Island. Our first time on the gulf. Then we drove around just to see the whole place including the Padre Island National Seashore. Rode bikes to beach, drove truck on beach, flew our kite and enjoyed the ocean. We left the island on a ferry (We were on a boat!) and moved to Magnolia Beach. Free Camping! Only stayed one night (schedule darn!). We flew the kite there too and totally enjoyed the beach area. Lots of birds!.

BBQ setup in RV Spot

Crested Caracara we saw from bird blind in the Padre Island National Seashore.

Super premium RV sites. We had pond behind us with loud snoring frogs. I BBQ’d some chicken.

Laughing Gull. Sharon is sure they’re laughing at me.

Our view from out the back of our trailer. I covered the bikes later. Beach is mostly seashells.

Sharon. Laughing. We collected oyster shells.

Had our flagpole up. I have camp locator on top. I turned the brightness down.

My cool kite…. works great in high wind. We let out all the line, 30’ Tail.
