The Governor’s Palace

Swords inside the Governor’s Palace (let’s pretend that I was holding the camera more upright than I actually was)… not only are they a lovely decoration, that way he also had them handy in time of need.  :)  I could think of a few people I know who would not really mind getting their hands on those swords.  Myself, for starts.

Special for… McKenzie!  Actually, we walked into the shop directly after this one and the smell of Williamsburg hit me.  I’m not quite sure what all is in that smell… mostly the various types of soap, I guess, but you have to have cases and cases of it to achieve the proper C.W. smell.

The gaol… which I had really needed a picture of last year, when we were quizzing on Acts… because… well, I don’t actually remember exactly why.  It had something to do with Antion wondering how that worked out in Acts 16 with the doors being thrown open and the jailer running out… and… *sigh*  I really don’t remember.  Oh well.  But there is the gaol for you.  :)

Houses and trees and people.  *grins*

Tulips behind the Wythe House.

Stairs inside the Wythe House.  They just looked interesting and photogenic.  Behind the bottom part of the stairs is Mr. Wythe’s study.  George Wythe taught Thomas Jefferson…

Greenness.  I don’t remember what house this was in. 

And there are many more pictures, but those took long enough to upload, so I’ll stop there.  :D
