    AS a reenactor myself (Roman 1st Cen. Crusader, WW1 & WW2) it's always fun going to these sites and chatting up fellow reenactors . WE love getting good Q's and explaining stuff letting people touch and try on items. for example my WW2 unit we let people kit up in a parachute with gear so they can get the feel of how heavy it was for paratroopers. For Roman we did the kid's Cohort with plastic swords / helmets and shields to teach formations while parents threw foam rocks at them. we have Old Sturbridge Village here in MA and they host a very large "Redcoats and Rebels " battle reenacment along with a very fun "Christmas by Candlelight" glad to see you enjoying it. FYI we always love to be asked "Are you hot in that?" lol

    The hour after dawn and just before dusk is called magic hour because of the awesome lighting. One of my best Colonial Williamsburg memories is walking through near dusk at the end of an extremely hot day, just after a cold rain came through. Heat from the grounds created a mist that brought out an effervescence from the unique colonial era plants and flowers. It was a truly a magic moment. And as much as I appreciate the magic that WDW brings, stepping back in time in a place like Colonial Williamsburg brings IMHO an even more special feeling of wonder. Great video and great road trip so far. Kind of funny that Sam wore his short pants on such a cool windy day :)

    For our 25th anniversary, my husband and I went to Colonial Williamsburg during the Christmas season. We stayed in the Brickhouse Tavern, one of the restored buildings on Duke of Gloucester Street. At Christmastime in the late 1700's they did not put up trees, but they did put naturally decorated wreath's on their doors. All the buildings had beautiful wreath's on the doors including the Brickhouse Tavern where we were staying. Every time we opened the door to go out, someone was taking a picture of the door. We were in a lot of people's vacation photos! Thank you for the trip down memory lane or Duke of Gloucester Street I should say!

    I am so glad you got to visit Colonial Williamsburg. It is quite an interesting and beautiful place. When we lived in Virigina and Maryland in the 1980's we went there a few times with my husband on business trips. One year instead of driving all the way down to be with relatives in Florida my husband, son and I spent Christmas in a Holiday Inn near Williamsburg. Our son was about 10 and they had old fashioned kids' games on the common in Colonial Williamsburg. He also enjoyed the capitol tour and even back then knew history so well he could answer their questions. I have pictures of the trip. At Christmas every door on the main street has fantastic wreaths made of fruit and nuts and other natural items. We ate at a restaurant, don't remember if it was that same one you went to, but had the best beef stew in large mugs. It was bitterly cold then and that was a hearty meal to warm us up. Do they still have a musket firing demonstration there? The last time I went there was in 2003 when my son was doing research for his master's thesis about the Florida Brigade that fought in the Civil War. One battle was nearby Williamsburg and their leader, Colonel George T. Ward, was killed and buried in the graveyard in the courtyard of the Episcopal Chruch there in Colonial Williamsburg. Most people forget that Williamsburg and Yorktown had battles in the Revolutionary and Civil Wars.

    Williamsburg should consider itself lucky that Sam didn't re-claim the colony as revenge in the name of the ghost of King George III..I mean he did say he would send a fully-armed battalion to remind us of his love 😂
    If you're ever in PA or NJ, I highly recommend visiting Valley Forge and Jockey Hollow National Historical Parks respectively. Jockey Hollow is outside Morristown and it was used by the Continental Army was their main winter encampment. Washington's headquarters during the encampment is still preserved in the middle of town. And Valley Forge is another winter encampment used (it's where they stayed after failing to retake Philly) that has a HUGE memorial arch that reminds me of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. I know all of this because I've been to those places for scouting to do their ten mile trails. And trust me, there's *SO* much history in the Northeast

    Evening concerts at the palace are excellent. Next time try going to the Raleigh Tavern bakery as soon as they open for warm ginger cakes and warm apple cider

    I’m really enjoying watching your adventure-as a Virginian I’m so pleased that you like my commonwealth-I think you would really enjoy a return trip to Williamsburg at Christmas time-it’s magical (just make sure Sam wears long pants😂)

    I am so glad to see the yard square napkins are back at the Kings Arms. At one point they were not using them.

    So glad to hear the King's Arms Tavern is back open! It's definitely the best restaurant in CW! You'll have to go back on a weekend night when they do full 18th century style plays in the big theater!

    Welcome, Jackie! Williamsburg is someplace I’ve been going to with husband and my kids for years. It was so nice to see it through someone else’s eyes for the first time. Glad you enjoyed it!
