We had a lovely time; eating in the historic taverns, shopping, visiting trades, exploring gardens, and going english country dancing.
Nice how we can generally find an obliging tourist to take our picture. :-)
We had to wait around for about 20 minutes for the tourists to clear out of the Governor's Palace grounds... but it was so worth it!
Read out Tara's new silk jacket ensemble on her blog.
I could live here.
Hole in the wall! :-)
Lily and I actually remembered to get a picture together! What?!
We had a lovely time chatting with Nicole and Abby in the milliner's shop, where they were constructing a new gown.
It was a lovely trip - and I bought fabric for a new jacket, so that means we HAVE to go back! ;-)

Yes! We didn't actually dress up in period clothing for it as it was a more casual setting with a weekly dance group there. If you're ever out there you should definitely go! They dance every Tuesday night. http://williamsburgheritagedancers.org
DeleteOh, and your dresses are positively gorgeous!

"Hole in the Wall"... nice play on words there. ;)
ReplyDeleteI like Williamsburg. And I like your pictures. And I like you.
I know... just typical, witty me. ;-P
DeleteThanks! You're not so bad yourself!

You just had to post this and make me even more impatient to go to Williamsburg, didn't you? ;)
ReplyDeleteYou all look positively gorgeous, and the pictures are equally so! Beautiful all the way around!! :)
I just discovered your blog, and your photography is over the moon gorgeous!! The one of Lily in the hole in the wall is my favorite! :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I love the pictures. SO beautiful! I have been to CW many times but I've never seen that hole in the wall. DO you mind sharing where it is located? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is in the gardens at the Governor's Palace. Where exactly in the gardens I can't remember, but if you have a little time to wander I'm sure you could find it. :-)
