Texas, Galvestonnnnn? -

What is it like? Im going there.Is it rainy usually? Fun, boring, ect. Any info

When are you going? That makes a huge difference in our answers for the weather. Galveston is as fun as you make it. You ll find people on here who hate it and think it s trashy and dirty, but personally I love it. But that s because I m not afraid of people who are different than me or who come from different socioeconomic backgrounds. There s plenty to do if you like history, good stories, and tradition, but not so much if you like big box store shopping. There are tons of restaurants of nearly every ethnicity (we re severely lacking in Indian and Thai food though). There are theaters and small, unique shops, and of course the beach. If you re coming this weekend, Dickens on the Strand is a fun festival with parades, food, arts crafts vendors, and entertainment. If you come any other time during the holiday season, check out the festival of lights at Moody Gardens. It s cheap and really really beautiful. Dress warmly if the weather calls for cool temps. The wind howls down here most of the time and it feels much colder than it really is. Have fun on your trip!

Dickens on the Strand should be going on and it s always fun.http://www.galvestonhistory.org/Dickens_��Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Be it decreed that all lords, ladies and children shall come and celebrate the 36th Annual Dickens on The Strand, a holiday festival, where bobbies, Beefeaters and the Queen herself will be on hand to recreate the Victorian London of Charles Dickens. Characters from Dickens novels walk the street. Food and entertainment fill the area with sights and smells that take you back to another era.

The Gulf Coast of Texas is a very nice place in my opinion. Big empty beaches that go on forever. Great food and the nicest people I ve ever met. I used to live in Corpus Christi and I cant wait to move back to the beach

It s not usually rainy in Galveston. Right now it could be windy and chilly though.

Depends on when you go. Christmas is a perfect time. It s always decorated nice.

I like ck answer... :]

Is this really overstay? -

i met a friend and this was her case. she left for the states for a tourist visa last 2007 she stayed there for 6 mos from april 19, 2007- october 19, 2007. she left america october 19, 2007, . She arrived at her country dated october 21, 2007 because their country was one day advance. When she decided to go back for another vacation last 2008, hawaii USCIS (where her point of entry was)held her for having an overstay for a day or two, as what the immigration officer told her, the last time she left for US year 2007. Her visa was also cancelled.although, they let her enter the mainland for a month, they still held her passport containing her visa. any comments about this because i pity my friend for having suffered that kind of treatment in hawaii.

If she arrived US on Apr 19th, she should have left US by Oct 18th, otherwise it would be considered overstay, but there is no law against those overstay less than 180 days, they may give her a warning.

Even one day too many is overstay , and the immigration authorities have no discretion in the matter.
