I took a trip to South Padre Island yesterday, with my brother and sister in law. South Padre Island is near Mexico, about 1.5 hours away from my home. The weather was beautiful that morning. First stop was Port Isabel where I climbed the lighthouse. This photo is of me at the top of the lighthouse. I'm scared of heights by the way, so this was quite a "feet" for me!!!
Yes, that IS a railing you see my feet sticking out from under. I'm not THAT crazy!!! :)


Before noon a front started moving in and rain came down. This is the beach before the rain.



The photo below is the Port Isabel Lighthouse that I climbed. I was at the top!
WooHoo!!! It is over 60 feet tall and was built in about 1858 I think. It is one of the oldest in the state.

We had a great time that day. I was proud I climbed the lighthouse and went outside to see the view!

Looks like a beautiful trip. That photo of your feet at the top of the light house is very cool.
I'm terrified of heights, too. I can't even stand right up at the railing like that - scared it'll break somehow. Just seeing your toes sticking out gives me the heebie jeebies.
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP I am very proud of you. Climbing up that lighthouse when you have a fear of heights is such a brave thing. I would say you have done ONE impossible thing for the entire month! :)Bea
