      Hey! Thanks for stopping by my channel! Also great question... yes! Clayton’s (the biggest beach bar in Texas I think) was just so lame. The food was bad and service was worse. Also it’s more of a place to go get drunk on spring break and that’s not what I was looking for. Otherwise I don’t recall anything else that I would recommend skipping :) hope you have a great time there!

    • @zachb8012
      @zachb8012 Před 2 lety +1

      We're supposed to go in February. Makes me a little worried to see mask wearing, especially outside. One of the biggest factors behind where we booked our vacation was avoiding freak-out states and cities. I can't be the only person that turns the other way when I see anything plandemic related. Hopefully business owners are perceptive enough to realize trying to be the corona police is only going to cost money nowadays. Most people are over it by miles, with exception of an obnoxious few.
