The trip to Portland, TX is about 200 miles. This was our view from our travel trailer's kitchen dining room window. |
Nueces Bay is in the background, beyond that lies Corpus Christi. |
We had rain and a chilly wind for a day and a half. |
Driving in the country we found a huge flock of snow geese. |
The gray birds on the ground are sandhill cranes. |
Sunset Dec. 30th. Corpus Christi's skyline is visible on the horizon. |
We were surprised at how clear the water in the bay was after the storm finally left the area. |
Strolling the North Beach in Corpus Christi the water looks like diamonds. |
Dec. 31st afternoon walk on the beach looking out on beautiful Corpus Christi Bay. The aircraft carrier, the Lexington is in the background. |
Same view after dinner at Landry's Seafood House. |
As the sun went down the water took on an erie pink glow. |
Back at our trailer we had one final view of the sunset and the city lights as we said good bye to 2006. Happy New Year! |
