Kings Creek Plantation... USS Wisconsin!
We are on vacation in Williamsburg, VA staying at the Kings Creek Plantation. This place is absolutely beautiful. Our accommodations consist of a beautiful 2 bedroom townhouse that can accommodate up to 6 people. There is plenty of room and I'm seriously thinking I'll have to arrange for a week get away scrapbooking retreat in February 2010!
Mike and I enjoyed visiting the Nautilus today in downtown Norfolk, VA and touring the USS Wisconsin which is in the same class of ship as the USS Missouri. My Uncle Otto served on the USS Missouri when the Japanese surrendered at the end of World War II. It was very interesting. Did you know that the USS Wisconsin is in "reserve" and can actually be recalled to active duty? Now you do!
Tomorrow we are planning to visit Yorktown and Jamestown Settlements along with visiting some lighthouses along the VA Beach coastline.
