Visited: Sunday, July 11th, 2010
Megan and I had visited Historic Jamestowne before, but the boys hadn't, and it had been a long time; our most recent visit was to the far more touristy Jamestown Settlement. But Historic Jamestowne is _much_ better. The ranger who gave us a tour had the presence of a former drill sergeant - and was fantastic. The park itself is a fascinating mix of archeological dig, historical preservation (of the Jamestown church, dating back to the 1600s), and museum. What I found most interesting is how the evidence has changed the conclusion as to where the fort was located over time.
