We then did a bit of shopping and both purchased new runners.
We revisited Yorktown Pub and had lunch. We had been there onn our last visit 11 years ago. Had a quick look at the township before going on to Williamsburg, home of the College of William and Mary (310 years old) and part of the area surrounding Jamestown, where the original British settlers landed 400 years ago.
We had a great afternoon exploring colonial Williamsburg and observing the drum and pipe band and the local militia circa early 17th century. We also had a look at the Govenors Palace and the Burton Parish church and surrounding boneyard.
Enjoyed seeing the different birdlife, wonderful gardens and the little squirrels.
Dinner followed at the Silver Diner, a 50's style diner with jukeboxes, bucket sized drinks and huuuuge meals.
We couldn't resist taking the final photo of the car with the unusual personalised licence plate. We are told that shagging is a dance style like the jive of the 50's.
