Yep, we had a good time! Can't you tell by Noah's pic. The boys got to experience some old-fashioned food (i.e. fare)...well not really. They did get to eat in a Tavern though and that was pretty cool.
We took the time to participate in a re-enactment about slavery. We wanted to give the boys a little history and education. The time spent during that session was very helpful and enlightening for us as well as for the boys. They got a chance to see actual slave quarters, tobacco plants, learn how to carry water and learn about the history of Virgina slavery.
These are some of the pictures of the slave areas and plantation areas. We got a chance to see the tobacco drying house, meat locker, plantation kitchen and how to hew a log. Overall, we had a great time and hopefully the boys learned a lot!
