Williamsburg Day 2 Afternoon


We spent a little bit of time in Jamestown. Its mostly museums now, even though it was the first town ever in America, no one lives there now. So we mostly just stopped for a snack and potty break and then back in the car back to Williamburg. We spent the rest of the afternoon walking around Williamsburg again before we met Uncle Peter for Pizza.







I have to insert here that these are definetly my children. See those ropes that are supposed to keep them out from where those cannons are? And notice in this picture of me on my mission standing on the edge of a water fall and that sign that says "keep out, Dangerous..." We dont listen to little signs like that. And apparently my children dont either.
Then since the babies had the hardest time going to bed the night before we thought for sure if we went swimming after a day like today that they would just crash. But wouldn't that be our luck that they wouldn't. They were still wide awake at 11 that night. Dang babies. Ashley works at the Marriott and with her employee discount we had a really nice room with a kitchenette that made everything so much nicer. Jack and Claire slept (or didn't) sleep together in the hide-a-bed and Max was in a crib. But I think its the last he'll stay there. He kept getting out and wanted to be in bed with the other two. Part of why they wouldn't go to sleep. They slept horizontal in the bed, there would have been room... Poor Max. We had such a wonderful time and the next morning we had to load up and just come home. The Verdict? Amazing vacation to see family and some of the oldest historical sites in the nation. We are so glad to have Ash and Peter so close to us. We need to go back maybe when the kids are older so we can do Jamestown again and some of the museums in Williamsburg. Good thing we all still have 4 more years to be together here.
