We spent a day at Jamestown, which is only a short drive from Williamsburg. We saw both the original settlement site (not a lot to see there) and a recreation next to the original site. NB and Michael's mom sit in one of the Native American dwellings.
LW takes a turn grinding corn. At 20 minutes per person per meal, kids his age probably would have had to help. Kids as young as 2 learned to make rope.
Grandpa and the kids on a recreation of one of the three boats that carried the original Jamestown settlers. The third boat was the smallest, and EM was amazed it could cross the Atlantic. Those early settlers had guts.
LW couldn't wait to try on the armor, but once he felt how heavy it was, he couldn't wait to get it off. Not even long enough for the group picture.
