Williamsburg, VA


Only a few days back from Cape Cod and Isaac and I headed up to Williamsburg, VA, to meet with my parents and grandparents. Chris and Marvin had to stay home, because Chris was getting ready to start school again. The drive was interesting; it was about four hours to get there. Isaac and I didn't do too bad. We got there in time for dinner. I had recently gotten my Droid, so we used it to determine where we were going to eat. We decided to eat at Second Street Bistro. It was good, and I would recommend it (stay tuned, there are lots of great restaurants that we ate at!).

The next day, my parents had to go to on a tour, so my grandparents and I hung around the house. Then we went to the shopping area. It was tax free weekend, and I desperately needed clothes for work--or that weren't maternity :). We didn't really find anything spectacular. We had a snack and then headed back to the condo.

It has been a long time since this, so I am going to summarize the trip from there:

--we went swimming a few times in the pool

--we went to Bush Gardens, but only rode one ride. Isaac wasn't big enough for the kid rides

--we went to the College of William and Mary (so beautiful!)

--we went to the Williamsburg Winery

--we went to the Jamestown Settlement

--I drink tim tams and tea Austrailan style (thanks Elizabeth :))

--we played dominoes, I am sure I didn't win!

--we ate at the Carrot Tree (a must go to, make sure you get dessert)

--we ate at the Blue Talon Bistro (very good as well)

Isaac and I enjoyed our time with everyone and were glad to share some vacation time with Mamie and Papaw Bill, Grandma G and Papaw Sam.
