The "ACTEC curse" was back in full force this year for the fall meeting in Colonial Williamsburg. The temperature dropped 20 degrees two days before we arrived, the clouds rolled in, and we got rain and 45-55 degree temperatures. (Two days after we left, the weather returned to normal.) We loved it anyway! We had Thursday to play; I had meetings Friday and Saturday. My meetings were at the Lodge, so J. Lynn would spend the time enjoying the sights and some special tours.
Here she is on Duke of Gloucester Street
The palace
We enjoyed several of of the old pubs
On Sunday, we went down to the Jamestown Settlement.Here's an old Indian village recreation
And a recreated settlement.
Then down to the river to see the ships
All in all, a great week -- despite the weather!

OK. Now I'm very jealous. I would love to go back to VA and see all that good stuff again.
D.
Our future home???? VA is such a great place.
You could do worse!
By any chance was that Plymouth Plantation? We visited Jamestown when we took our huge trip back east many, many years ago and spent a day there, as well as visiting the Mayflower--both of which were staffed by people who dressed in time period costume and played their roles to perfection.
Plymouth Plantation and the Mayflower are in Massachusetts -- similar, but different group. We visited there a few years ago.
Love it! I want to go...so sad I couldn't bum along on that trip.
