You kinda missed all the good parts. I love the Island from going to Medical School there. Much more history and culture you missed. One of my friends had a party, and lived in a historical house. His attic was full of ceramic dolls. Almost 200 of us wanted to see the dolls. He said NO! YOU MIGHT DISTURB THEM! This guy is the most laid back hippie ever but no no and no.

[@destinationdos]

Thanks for sharing that! Sounds like I have much more to explore and share about Galveston’s rich history and culture. Your story about the ceramic dolls is intriguing-definitely a unique piece of local lore! I’d love to hear more of your experiences and recommendations. I might incorporate them in a part 2! 👍😊
