We left Mustang Island and have arrived in Mission, Texas. However before we left the Mustang Island area we got to spend a day driving the beach route of North Padre Island and it was alot of fun taking the truck into the beach. We drive about 15 miles, had lunch, let the dogs chase birds and play in the water, sighted a almost extinct animal ( see pictures below ) and then drove back to the campsite. The going was pretty rough and only 4 wheel drive vehicles were allowed . The return trip was interesting as we drive through water in the lower areas as a result of the tide coming in. Hence there was a side trip to the car wash to get the sand and salt off of the truck before heading back to the campsite.
