What not to miss at Williamsburg VA.....

Could you pick out the top couple events that you liked. We have 2 kids 13 +10. Thanks.

One of our personal favorites is the evening program "Cry Witch" - they stage a candlelit trial in the Capitol of someone accused of being a witch. If you get there early and sit up front you can get picked to sit in the jury box. DW always votes to burn her! It's an extra admission ticket but well worth it, I think you can get a discount with some of the ticket packages.

Another thing the kids will like are participating in the military drills held during the day, take a close look at the schedule when you arrive to see when things are happening so you don't miss out. There are pirate & ghost programs as well, if you check the website once you know when you are going you'll be able to set up a schedule. For evening entertainment we like going to Chowning's Tavern where they have live entertainment and period games you can play.

Those are a couple of top choices but we really love the whole area, one of our favorite destinations and gives you a great appreciation of the history around when our country was in its infancy.

On another note, the CG that we always stay at is Newport News Park, a huge wooded county park about 15-20 min away from Williamsburg. Electric and water HU and a dump station, roomy sites with way more privacy than you'll get at any of the RV parks. The only issue you might have would be getting around if you don't have a vehicle although I think you'll run into that anywhere in the area.
