Our last day! Can’t believe it – it’s been such a wonderful adventure. It’s not over quite yet so here’s the gist of our final travel day.
Williamsburg
Costumed people abound and we are kind of fascinated with them. Do they do this as full-time work? We read that some of them live in the historic houses. How are those people chosen? Are they allowed to have televisions and dishwashers? Do they wash their own period clothes? Are they wearing wigs? Isn’t that uncomfortable? On and on…
We decide we can get our fill of the historic village just by strolling around the grounds. Wikipedia provides answers to questions on how the actual village came to be a “living museum” with help from one of the Rockefellers providing a bunch (practically all) of the financing. Interesting.
On the Road
To keep ourselves amused, we played – yep – travel Bingo. In fact, we’ve been playing it practically the entire trip. We never found a sign for a downhill truck grade or a cattle crossing but other than that, all the windows were closed. Yay!
New Jersey
We hit the road and decide to look for one more historic spot to visit in our beloved Jers. Not finding a good one on the way we make it home in record time. Until the next adventure!!!
Ahhhh New Jersey. Home Sweet Home!
