    Drove to Galveston, which is the birthplace of Juneteenth. We arrived on June 20, which was one day after the official holiday. Took pictures by the Juneteenth historical marker and the city mural. Also stopped in at the Galveston Island Brewing and had their 007 Eye PA, which was very good. Ate dinner at the Shark Shack Beach Bar and Grill before retiring the Galveston Island Holiday Inn.Read more

  • 8th Wonder Brewery

    June 22, 2024 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 90 °F

    Stopped at the 8th Wonder Brewery and had a couple of beers. Their IP8 was excellent. Absolutely loved the brewery and it had a great vibe there, even for early afternoon. They had cool murals, and the We ❤️ Houston statue is right by there. They also have very cool giant statues of the Beatles on the grounds there. It was a little annoying that John and Paul are in the wrong places (iykyk) but definitely appreciate the thought and the effort of the artist. Lastly it was very interesting to see that they sell THC infused seltzer at the brewery there.Read more
