We had a wonderful vacation in VA last week! Got to see some dear old friends (though they are not old!!!), have great family time, learn a few historical things at Colonial Williamsburg, and scream like crazy on the coasters at Busch Gardens!! It was soooo much fun but it was sooooooo HOT!!
Here's a taste of our time...
Our home away from home:
Colonial Williamsburg ~
Governor's Palace:
It was so hot that there were not a lot of 'towns people' walking the street so I got excited when I saw this guy on his horse and went over to get his pic. He waved at me. I wondered what he was doing then realized that he was "George Washington" and taking part in a reenactment down the street. Oops! I almost kept George Washington from saving the day! LOL
The Capitol Building:
Busch Gardens ~
The water rides were very welcome!!!
"Alpengeist" My favorite! Very twisty! :D
"Griffon" - 4 second pause then a 90 degree drop! My family is in the second row. I rode this one, too, and it is a lot of fun!!
They have lots of beautiful animals!
Home again ~
We had a great time but now back to real life! My daughter's birthday was yesterday and here is her birthday cake... turtle cheesecake!!
Yummy!!
I hope to spend some time in my carft room today so should be posting again soon.
Have a great day!!!
