A History Lesson
 
 
 
We spent some time recently
at the Jamestown Settlement
in Virginia.


 
I have a new appreciation for the early
travelers to this new world.
 
They were brave and determined,
traveling in a small, cramped
cargo hold aboard ships much
like these.
 
 
 
This was one of the favorite stops on
our trip.
 
 
 
The weather was perfect,
and the scenery beautiful.
 
 
 The only way the travelers could come on deck
 was to be invited by the Captain.
 I figured I better make friends, I am
a little claustrophobic:))
 
We also visited Williamsburg and Yorktown.
More history to share later.
