That's where we are. Staying at the La Quinta downtown - nice hotel, no indoor pool but clean and comfortable and close to pretty much everything we came here to see. The desk woman looks like a young Cicely Tyson (she didn't know who that was).
Tonight we hung out in Merchant Square, which is extremely cool. I've been before but Monello hadn't, which makes me happy because I've been almost nowhere that he hasn't already been. Fun evening walking around, stopping in for drinkies at random pubs; made a mistake on dinner with BBQ buffet at Seasons - it was fine, but there were several places we saw afterward where we should have gone instead.
Downtown they have an ice skating rink that we're going to do tomorrow or Sunday. There was a gathering area with torches, picnic tables, and a bonfire that we hung out at for awhile.
I talk to everyone, so several locals gave us advice on what to see, do, and eat. Apparently the Colonial Parkway drive between Jamestown and Yorktown is stunning, so we'll do that and let you know
