We spent 7 nights in Williamsburg last week and had a fabulous time! Here are a few of the many highlights (in random order!)
 |
| Busch Gardens!! |
 |
| Elaina went on the Lochness Monster with me and then again 2 more times with Erik- it was my first loop roller coaster as a kid and I loved sharing it with her too! |
 |
| We loved the European theme, lots of rides and great shows! |
 |
| Coolin' off in the shade while Dad and Elaina hit another roller coaster |
 |
| This was Erik's favorite place!! |
 |
| USS Wisconsin, Nauticus Museum in Norfolk |
 |
| This aquarium was really fun! |
 |
| We took a drive on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel |
 |
| The girls thought this dead puffer fish was a pretty cool find on the beach! |
 |
| Virginia Beach |
 |
| Our little spot- with plenty of shade and snacks, but they still spent most of the time in the water! |
 |
| Elaina caught this toad on our walk one night- we couldn't catch any of the hundreds of jumping frogs that scattered everywhere on the path.... wish we at least knew what kind they were! |
 |
| Governor's Palace in Williamsburg |
 |
| This was an impressive/intimidating entryway! |
 |
 |
| We did the RevQuest/spy game while we were there- it was a fun way to explore the city! |
 |
| Stylin' it on the tennis courts at our hotel! |
 |
| We stopped in DC on our way to VA so we could see some of the landmarks there. |
 |
| Historic Jamestown |
 |
| Replica Powhatan Village |
 |
| Inside one of the huts |

 |
| We spent lots of time in our hotel pool. It was a record breaking week of heat while we were there with temps in the mid-upper 90s and heat index 105-115 everyday. |
