Historic Jamestowne

Today we visited historic Jamestown together, Here we are by the split rail fence before entering the visitor center

Learning Jamestown history --Ellie was fascinated by the artifacts behind the glass and asked lots of questions.
We attended a program where we learned about the Indian tribes and how our word "wow" comes from the Powhatan Indians!
The kids made pinched clay pots, similar to the ones the Indians would have made.
Ellie stands next to Pocahontas !
This is an example of how the settlers built their houses.
Climbing on what's left of the rowhouses built in the 1600's
Bethany and Sam climbed on this neat tree I just had to take a photo of
The kids favorite part of the whole day was the ferry ride we took across the river to Surry, and then back again. Our car on the ferry ! (the red Yukon)


They thought this experience was so cool !
