FRIDAY      Historic Williamsburg is just the place to get into the spirit of the holidays. Our welcome dinner will be held on th way to Williamsburg, in Richmond at the Hanover Tavern. This unique spot was also a favorite for Patrick Henry. Accommodations for the next three nights are at the Woodlands Resort, a Colonial Williamsburg property located adjacent to the Visitor's Center. Feel free to come and go as you like using the shuttle bus that runs continuously between the hotel and the historic area or it is just a short walk. (D)

SATURDAY      This morning, step back in time with a visit to Berkeley Plantation, site of the first official Thanksgiving in 1619. Then make room for memories at the Jamestown Settlement. In 1607, thirteen years before the Pilgrims landed in Massachusetts, a group of 104 English men began a settlement on the banks of Virginia's James River. This afternoon, choose your own activity: Williamsburg Pottery, Historic Colonial Williamsburg or the new President's Park (at additional cost). Dinner is a feast tonight at Captain George's Seafood Buffet. (CB,D)

SUNDAY     This morning see a special concert featuring Dean Shostak and his all glass instruments, it is sure to be a tour highlight. Share in the festivities of the season at Colonial Williamsburg! Your day is free to take a stroll through history and imagine the days of Christmas past. See the beautiful decorations of the 18th century and have some time to work on your gift list. Then, you won't want to miss the early evening Grand Illumination. Depicted as it was, see Williamsburg come to light with the traditional candles, fireworks, and music of the season. Later this evening, meet at Kings Arms Tavern for a traditional colonial dinner. (CB,D)
