A lot of people have been asking about my vacation, so I thought I’d just write about it on here. It was a very enjoyable time. Molly and I drove straight-thru to Virginia on Saturday and came back, driving straight-thru, the following Saturday. In between this time, we mostly hung out with my family and my friend, Matt.
On Saturday, we left Madison at 5AM and arrived to Yorktown, VA at midnight. The most exciting thing we encountered on that trip was our lunch at Chick-Fil-A. That Sunday we mostly rested and visited with my Aunt & Uncle, with Matt and my cousins coming over for dinner as well. On Monday we visited Yorktown and I took the picture you see with a cannonball still stuck in the side of a building. On Tuesday we went to Williamsburg with my Aunt and my 4 year old cousin, Emily. That evening, we drove to Chesapeake and met with Matt to watch the first half of the NCAA Championship game.
On Wednesday we relaxed and stayed in. Thursday was our trip to Baltimore to see the Yankees/Orioles game at Camden. Camden Yards is great, but the game was pretty disappointing. I also experienced the horror of Northern Virginia traffic.
We relaxed and grilled out on Friday with family and Matt. We left at 5 AM on Saturday and arrived back in Madison at 9:15 PM. The way back included a failed stop in West Virginia where both the bathrooms were out of order.
Overall, it was a wonderful trip. I’m not a big fan of having the entire week of vacation planned out, I like to just take things day by day. The only day we planned ahead for was the trip to Baltimore on Thursday. I have spent a lot of time in Yorktown, VA, so the trip was about seeing the people, not the attractions. I also enjoyed all of the food we ate. My Aunt made us either pancakes or waffles every morning. Molly and I have decided that we’ll probably make this an annual trip. My Uncle just got a pretty sweet boat, so we’ll probably push it out to May every year.
