Williamsburg Virginia

Kydon and Shanna invited me to go to Wiliamsburg with them for spring break.  We drove eight hours to get there and it was well worth it!  We stayed at the "Powhatan" which was a nice resort place with indoor and outdoor pools, a playground, and beautifully landscaped grounds for the kids to run and play on.  We visited the historic triangle:  Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown.  Here's Kydon and Shanna onboard the "Susan Constant" the largest of the three ships to make the original 1607 voyage to America.  (It was surprisingly small,. just 116 ft. long!)
We all explored every ship, and heard about the voyages from costumed sailors.    There were forts, museums, trolley rides, and lots of fun places to eat out and explore on the trip.  We also went to North Carolina and had fun there.   Thanks Kydon and Shanna.  I loved going on vacation with you.
