Jamestown, Virginia

We spent the day at historic Jamestown, VA. Jamestown was settled in 1607, thirteen years before the Pilgrims of Plymouth arrived! We were blessed with a gorgeous day, full of much information and displays! ~ We were pleasantly surprised to find that they have added a lot since we had been here last.

These flags of the 50 states each had a nice plaque explaining how each state came into the union ~ very interesting!

Nick as a Jamestown resident!

I don't know; do you think metal hats and vests are coming back into style?

Here we are in front of 1 of the 3 ships that made the Atlantic crossing from England.

Nicolas gets to feel how heavy the musket was.

Here Nick is scrapping the fur off a deer hide.

Posing in front of the Powhatan Indian home.

The homes are quite large inside!
