Trips and Vacations


Colonial Williamsburg - Williamsburg, VA

www.williamsburg.com

April 2007

 

This trip to Williamsburg is actually the first Nguyen family vacation!  We chose Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia for it's short drive and Erica's familiarity and fondness for the place.  She's been coming here regularly since she was a baby!

It was a great success, and there's something for everyone here... it's taken half a dozen trips, but it's even growing on me.

I could just pop that nose right off and eat it. Just kidding...

It's harder than it looks.  Hoop and stick is not for the faint of heart
