Jamestown

"This is where Santa comes down the chimney!"
We went to Jamestown today with our friends David & Sadie from DC. This year is the 400th Anniversary of this settlement; the Queen of England is coming here next weekend! (The tall white structure behind us was errected to commemorate the 300th Anniversary.) To the right is the brick church, rebuilt over the original foundation, and the tall wood fence on the left marks the location of one of the three actual triangular fort walls.

This statue is of Captain John Smith, the Govenor of Virginia in 1607. I also liked seeing the statue of Pocohantas.

The "Barracks" as seen in its post form before being mudded.
