Come on down, sweet virginia

So we had an action packed visit to VA. We took two musuems the Living Museum and the Mariner's. Both are good for kids, although the Mariner's Museum is better for older (7 and up.) The museum is opening (in 07) a new wing dedicated to the USS Monitor, which should be excellent. The Living Museum is gorgeous and the little ones will love it. Go soon to catch the Scoop on Poop exhibit.

We were also state park crazy with visits to Jockey's Ridge in NC, First Landing, Belle Isle and Westmoreland in the Old Dominion. I'm sad to say that we missed the creation of the world's largest smore at First Landing. We did find a shark tooth fossil at Westmoreland, which is really gorgeous and worth a visit, as are the other two of course. If you are heading to Virginia Beach and need a respite from the beach crowds, First Landing is a great choice.
