We're Here!
20. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 86 °F
It was a long drive but it wasn't too bad. Road trips are always a lot more fun when you've got someone special to share it with. Even though it was a good ride, we're still bushed! We just want to drop everything off at the hotel and then go get something to eat. We're starving!Les mer

Dag 1
We Made It!
20. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 86 °F
We're at our hotel now, after a very long and tiring drive. It's too late for us to get any sightseeing done today so the fun will begin tomorrow.
Right now, we're just relaxing on the bed, looking over all the brochures we picked up in the hotel's lobby, and deciding what we'd like to do about dinner. We found a 10% off coupon for Golden Corral so it looks like that's where we're going to eat tonight. A buffet sounds like a good idea. We're both starving!Les mer

Dag 1
Golden Corral
20. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 84 °F
We haven't eaten very much today because we've been on the road nearly all day. Since we're both really hungry a buffet place like Golden Corral is the perfect choice for us. We've been to Golden Corral before, both here in Williamsburg and also in Florida, and we've always enjoyed their food. I know that we can count on leaving feeling both full and satisfied.
I wish that Golden Corral had some locations in the New York area, but they don't. Buffets, in general, have become few and far between in the New York City and Long Island area. I always enjoy eating at buffets and would go all the time if we had some open up close to home.Les mer

On the Chow Line
20. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F
Golden Corral was kind of busy but that was to be expected since it was the dinner hour. Their selection of food was very good but, somehow, we both remembered it as tasting better. Has their quality been slipping or do we have selective memories? I'm thinking it's a combination of the two. In any case, we both ate plenty and left feeling stuffed and happy. I'm glad that this place is so close to the hotel, in case we want to go back. Would we actually return though? I honestly don't think so. I don't think we'll be here long enough for a repeat visit. We're seeing so many other restaurants that we'd like to try while we're in Virginia. There's just not enough meals in the day to go everywhere.Les mer

Our Room
20. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 81 °F
After eating at Golden Corral, we headed back to the room since there wasn't really anything for us to do in Williamsburg at this hour.
It's okay though. Right now, we're so tired all we really want to do is relax at the hotel, look through the brochures we got and plan out our next few days. It's going to be an early night for us.Les mer

Dag 2
Good Morning!
21. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F
We slept great and are feeling very well rested and refreshed. I wanted us to go back to Golden Corral for their breakfast buffet but Kathy wanted us to try the hotels free breakfast, to save time and money.
I wasn't thrilled with the idea at first but I agreed to try it. I have to say, it was a lot better than I expected it to be. Not only did they have things like muffins and dry cereal, they also had pancakes and waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, oatmeal, yogurt and fruits.
It was so good that we ended up eating breakfast here every day for the whole length of our stay. I guess sometimes the free hotel breakfast can be good after all. I'm glad we decided to try this meal.Les mer

Seeing Colonial Williamsburg is the main reason that we came to Virginia so we're feeling very happy to be here. These living history museums are very unique and every visit is a different experience. We're so eager to go in and start our adventure.Les mer

The Old Mill
21. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
This was one of the first sights that greeted us as we entered the grounds of Colonial Williamsburg. Since this is a living history museum, everyone who works here is dressed up and living as if they are in the past. In this case, they are living as if it's the 1760's. We had come here for vacation many years ago but the kids were small and didn't have any interest or patience for a place like this. All they wanted to do was stay at the hotel and swim in the pool. I'm guessing the heat wave that was happening at the time had something to do with that.
Now, Kathy and I were back, just the two of us, so we expected to have a really good time here. We were very interested to see this museum last time. It took us many years but we finally made it back.Les mer

Into the Woods
21. august 2016, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
After passing that windmill we walked for a little while through the woodlands of Virginia. We walked so much that we were starting to wonder if maybe we were going the wrong way but there was only one path so what other way could we have gone. I was surprised that the village of Colonial Williamsburg wasn't a lot closer to the visitor center and parking lot, where we got our tickets.Les mer
