Would have cost over $400 if we had used an agent. Our cost? $60. While waiting in line we watched several 'agents' picking up bundles of passports and putting them straight into FedEx envelopes. Looks like an easy way to make a living!
After a quick stop in the massive British Store we headed east to the San Jacinto Monument
This is where Texas and Mexico had a bit of a skirmish during the Texas revolution
At 567 feet tall its the highest monument column in the world.
For a few dollars you can ride an elevator almost to the top.
The view from there is quite big.

Then its off to scramble all over USS Texas - the only ship to see action in WW1 and WW2
Tonight we camp at Huntsville State Park - wot no caterpillars?
