Williamsburg VA,(Perfect Meal Today)11\/14\/11\/–<\/span>in the southeast, it’s easy to take for granted the historic significance of the first 13 colonies. However, there’s no better reminder of important past events than a fall weekend in Colonial Williamsburg.<\/p>\n

A getaway weekend is something every resident of the region should do at least once. Even if you’re not from the southeast, go ahead and add a trip to eighteenth-century Virginia to your bucket list.<\/p>\n

Here are five of the thousands of reasons you’ll fall<\/strong><\/em> for Colonial Williamsburg.<\/p>\n

Colonial Williamsburg is gorgeous in the fall<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sure the springtime blossoms are beautiful, summer days are fun, and the holidays are especially festive, but there’s something so refreshing and enchanting about Colonial Williamsburg on a clear, crisp autumn day.\u00a0Blue skies, golden leaves, and mild temperatures accentuate the beauty of this national treasure.<\/p>\n

Fabulous dining <\/strong><\/p>\n

When hungry in Williamsburg, one needn’t look far for sustenance.\u00a0 Dining <\/a>is truly a historic event in this town.\u00a0 From fine dining, family meals, picnic tables,\u00a0 to quick service-there’s a mealtime solution sure to please travelers in every group.<\/p>\n

A favorite treat for visitors is a dining journey into the 18th-century at one of the historic taverns located in the colonial village.\u00a0 The popular taverns such as The Kings Arms and Shields Tavern, serve local fare with a flare from the 1700’s.\u00a0 Guests are swept back in time to savor a meal that would no doubt please George Washington, Thomas Jefferson or other famous diners from days gone by.<\/p>\n

Best field trip ever<\/strong><\/p>\n

I still talk about my fifth grade trip with the Girl Scouts and with good reason. Williamsburg is a blast for kids.<\/p>\n

Rent a costume, ride in a carriage, spend some time in the stocks – there’s a million memories and learning opportunities awaiting young visitors, school groups, home schoolers and history buffs of all ages.<\/p>\n

Start your day at the visitors center to gather information, plot your course and take in the classic film, The Story of a Patriot, starring Jack Lord.\u00a0 Made in 1957, it’s the longest running film in US cinema history. The 34-minute movie tells a fictional story based upon real events setting the stage for the things you’ll encounter during your time in the village.<\/p>\n

Accommodations and pancake houses galore<\/strong><\/p>\n

Name your price range and you’re bound to find accommodations within close proximity of your destination. High end unique properties, chain hotels, Vacation Rental by Owner, Bed and Breakfast, Resorts, budget, group accommodations, camping – there’s a perfect place to stay that fits nicely into every traveler’s budget.<\/p>\n

Oh yes, the pancake houses.\u00a0 Traveling around town, it’s impossible to miss the abundance of pancake houses dotting the streets.\u00a0 This must be an indicator that a hearty breakfast is in order before venturing out for a full day of sight-seeing.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Williamsburg is surrounded by fun things to do<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s more than just the colonial village to experience when you come to Williamsburg.\u00a0 The real challenge is deciding where to begin.<\/p>\n

Busch Gardens is open weekends in September and October. Each evening as the sun sets the atmosphere changes and Howl-O-scream ensues; frightening and thrilling park guests.<\/p>\n

Jamestown, the historic English settlement, is a short drive down the road.\u00a0The beautiful campus of William and Mary is up the street from the colonial village.\u00a0The Williamsburg Winery is nearby and open for samplings.\u00a0Yorktown is a few miles away.\u00a0You’re getting the idea now, aren’t you?\u00a0You won’t be bored in Williamsburg!<\/p>\n

When John D. Rockefeller, Jr. and his wife Abby envisioned and embarked on the restoration of this historic colonial village over 60-years ago,\u00a0 I have to believe they imagined a beautiful fall day when Americans and visitors from around the globe would be drawn to this patriotic time capsule. And while Williamsburg certainly is beautiful all times of year, there’s something truly magical about fall in the Revolutionary City.<\/p>\n
