This was a great day! We headed out for Jamestown in the morning. This was the first permanent English settlement. They showed a good movie and introduced some of the famous characters from that early settlement: John Smith, John Rolfe & Pocahontas. We then spent the afternoon at Yorktown, where the decisive battle was won to end the Revolutionary War. The last words of the Tour Guide were something to the effect: "In Jamestown, England established its first colony; 23 miles away and 170 years later in Yorktown, they lost all 13 of them." Great line that tied the day together.
Great shot. Looks like everyone is paying attention, including Cali.
