Exploring Colonial America

XplorMor Team has explored the historic Virginian towns of Colonial America on several occasions, experiencing lovely sunny days featuring reenactments of colonial events and sipping hot cider by small bonfires on wintry nights.  No matter the time of year, visiting Colonial America is a memorable experience into the history and founding of the United States.

The area is compromised of three main sites known as the Colonial Triangle: Colonial Williamsburg, Historic Jamestowne and its recreated Settlement, and Yorktown.  I asked one of our team members, Bryan Davis, about his experience with Colonial America as he was raised in the area and has seen its transformation over the years first hand.  His reply, "The Colonial Triangle has gotten better and better. The committees and foundations responsible continuously make improvements in order to offer the colonial experience as close as possible to reality from the architecture to the role players use of 18th century colloquialisms."
