Took a trip to Virginia to visit my best friend this past weekend. Since she had to work on Saturday, I drove to Jamestown and visited the settlement there. It was really interesting. I love learning about the history of our country. Thought I’d share a few pictures from my day.
Fort James, a replica of the original fort built by the first settlers
Replicas of the three ships that brought the settlers to the New World are open for visitors
There is also an exhibit following the history of Jamestown, a 1/2 hour movie about the Virginia Co. that founded the settlement, a replica of a Powhatan Indian village and all sorts of interactive things for kids to do. Next time, I’ll take my family along and visit Williamsburg as well.
