Williamsburg and Busch Gardens

A week and a half ago, we took a trip to Williamsburg, VA with Rich and Carol (Grampy and Grammy) for a couple of days. On our arrival day, we had lunch in Colonial Williamsburg and then walked down the main street looking at the buildings, gardens, old trees, and people dressed in costume. Along the way, the girls enjoyed playing stick and hoop. (Kate even got creative and used the hoop as a hula hoop...probably not seen that often in those days.)

The next day we headed to Busch Gardens for a fun-filled day of riding rides, meeting Sesame Street characters, feasting at Oktoberfest in Germany, and enjoying a show here and there. Mark was even brave enough to take on the Griffon...a 90 degree drop for 210 feet!

At the end of our day, we tried on several hats before leaving the park. Not sure what started the hat frenzy, but we had a lot of fun in the process!

Here are a few highlights from our day.
Thanks for a great trip Grampy and Grammy!!
