Hanging out in Williamsburg, Va for spring break with the family. Rode around today, took the scenic highway, really made me want another motorcycle. Saw the Jamestown Settlement, then went over to York Town. Beautiful water front, made me want my boat with me. Gonna be here all week, Probably do Historic Williamsburg tomorrow, take the kids to Busch gardens one day, just kinda making it up as we go. I'll post pics when we get back

WAAAAY COOL!! You are in my backyard!! I live about 2 miles from Yorktown beach...just over the bridge. The York River is an awesome place to boat....Really wish I had mine over for the season, I could take yall for a little cruise.

Blue Talon is one of our favorite restaurants in Williamsburg...its right in Merchants Square in the restored area....burger is AWESOME!! The taverns are pretty cool to eat in as well.

Where are yall staying? Any questions reply back, or give me a shout

If you do Busch Gardens, if it's still there be sure to do the Loch Ness Monster...:love: One of the best metal coasters on the east coast! (IMHO)

Colonial Williamsburg is one of my wifes favorite places to shop.. Doesn't matter where... she likes ALL of it <sigh>

Enjoy yout time off Spare... You've earned it. :clap:

did Busch Gardens yesterday, skipped the coasters, don't need to see Virginia Hospitals(my back is still tender), Kids had a good time. Did Williamsburg the day before, nice place, a bit overpriced, but so is Busch Gardens. Planning on going to Virginia Beach today to see some friends. Trying to talk the family into going to the air museum, kinda hard to get three women to aggree on going there.

The Aquarium in Va Beach is great.....Nuaticus in Norfolk is also really good- you can tour the USS Wisconson there

The thing about air museums as they aren't just for aviation nuts. Most of them have enough of everything to keep everybody entertained for a few hours. I'm not a big aviation fan myself, but I have been to the one in Warner Robbins and Pensacola and both of them were a good way to spend half a day. And even my wife didn't get bored in them either as there really is alot to see in them. And sorry I missed your call the other day, I was in Amicalola falls in N Ga for the wifes spring break when you called me. Give me a shout when you get back home.

all my ideas got shot down, its tough living with three girls, I got bood when I sugested the air museum. Ended up at Bass Pro Shops at least(my wife likes to shop there, even got her to look at guns), took the kids to see a movie, ate at the mall then went to visit our friends in Va Beach, they're the ones who let us use their Kitty Hawk house. Took it easy for the day, planning to go back to Busch Gardens tomorrow
