This is another destination city as there is so much to do here. We were not on the beach but still only a five minute drive to the beaches and the boardwalk. The three mile long boardwalk separates the pristine beach from the hotels and the amusement park. A delightful statue of King Neptune. At almost 35 foot high, he is surrounded by dolphins, fish, starfish, and a huge turtle. Next day, we drove back across the bridge to visit Colonial Williamsburg, the world’s largest living history museum. From the Governor’s Palace to the Capital, there are many pieces of history to experience here. One other thing to note is the VB is the home of NAS Oceana. Oceana is a master jet base and is where naval aviators learn their carrier landing skills, so we were treated to a couple of days of fighters doing touch and goes. They didn’t practice at night thankfully. There is also a Military Aviation Museum here which is different from most in that almost every plane here is airworthy. Planes from World War 1 thru World War 2 and from many different countries are here to see.
