Is Galveston Open for Business?
My hubby and I are thinking of a 2 night get away and thought Galveston might be good. But, I can't find a lot about if things are open or closed after the hurricane. Have they reopened everything? Is it appealing for vacationers? What about Schlitterbahn, the strand, ? OR is it just a bunch of closed shops and debris still?
Anyone got any info - I'd appreciate it:)

When I went in March almost everything was open. The beach and the hotels/restaurants by the beach were open and looked undamaged, the Strand had quite a few closed shops (when I was there) but there were still plenty of shops open for a few hours of shopping. Moody Gardens was fine, Shlitterbahn wasn't open yet when I was there but nothing looked damaged, it was just off-season I guess. The place where you could actually see the damages the most was in what I am guessing are peoples summer homes or people that evacuated and never came back, it seemed like a lot of empty and badly banged up little houses on the side streets.
And so you know, I hear stuff on the radio almost every week about things going on in Galveston to do! last weekend it was a national sandcastle-building competition! Check out their website, you can see pictures and a calendar of all the stuff there!

Galveston is open for business and it should be a good placed for a get away for you and your hubby. Yes Schlitterbahn is open and shops are open. You will have a good time, the beach is great and sexy at night.

I was there last week. Everything is NOT open yet. But many things are. There are still shops that are having to take things slow to get back in business.
But there is enough open that you will be able to keep busy for a couple days.
