Wednesday

Whew, full, hot day.. We experienced a Powhatan village, and a British cargo ship that carried 54 settlers to the first permanent colony, Jamestown, Virginia. There is a beautiful visitor center with artifacts and displays that explain the relationship between those two groups, and later, Africans.
There was a bald eagle nest, but we didn't get cameras out quick enough when daddy brought a fish for the babies. Then we returned to colonial Williamsburg for a regular tour of the capital building, the court, and jail. This was not only the second capital of Virginian, but the location of beginnings of revolution against British rule.


Finally, back on the bus to a buffet, for dinner.
Back on the bus, and another hour to hotel in Washington DC.
