Thur. 9/20/07 ~ Back in Time to Colonial Williamsburg

When we got up to go to Williamsburg we met a nice couple who told us the best way to go was to take the public transportation and shuttle over to Williamsburg. We rode the bus with them over to the Visitors’ Center where we got our $70 tickets that included admission to Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown. Walking out of the visitors’ center you go along a path with markers that take you back in time until you arrive in the late 1700s. The first stop was a working farm built as it would have been back then. We also visited 1776 era homes and shops, went on a guided tour of the Governor’s Palace and had lunch at the Kings Arms Tavern. When Williamsburg closed for the day we caught the bus back to the campground and ran into the same couple we had met that morning. Greg and Brenda were a really nice couple so we all decided to go to dinner together at the Golden Corral Buffet and then they came back to our place afterwards and we visited for a couple of hours.
