Wordless Wednesday from Williamsburg


  Last week I popped over to Williamsburg, VA and walked the streets of Colonial Williamsburg.  A trip to Colonial Williamsburg is never boring no matter the time of day or the season.


Ice skating rink open daily for a fee.


 Some building are illuminated with candles or spot lights.


My favorite thing to look at during the winter months are the wreaths.  The adorn most doors and no one is alike.

 Some have swag in addition to the wreaths and others are strictly just wreaths.



Two doors why not two wreaths?


All of the wreaths in keeping with the traditions and customs of the time frame are natural, easily accessible items. So definitely  evergreens, fruit and even feathers.


To see the doors does not cost an admission fee but, you may just want to pay to see how the inside is decorated too.

  2. Williamsburg is a really pretty town with its colonial charm. I love that its near military installations, the sea, mountains and wineries of Charlottesille... that's why we intend on moving there (or Yorktown) after our military service.

  4. I don't know the area at all but a good walk is a great way to clear the mind and it looks like the perfect setting. I love the fact there's the ice rink there too - bet that has seen a bit of action this winter!

  8. Seems like a great place to go for a walk with loved ones, just pointing everything out to each other. And you're probably right to speculate on the decorations BEHIND the doors too!

  21. I love being aware of the small, but beautiful things around us. That's why I always encourage to go out and explore, even if it is just the city that they are living in. Heck, even your neighborhood is worth exploring if you haven't done it in a while... Thanks for sharing, Rose.
