If you want to spend your Christmas doing something truly out of the ordinary, take a trip to Galveston Island, Texas this year. What more festive place could you find to spend the holidays than the beautiful island of Galveston?

You'll even be transported back in time with Dickens on the Strand when the downtown area becomes a victorian village reminiscent of Victorian London. Take a Christmas vacation this year in Galveston, Texas.
