I took a little trip to the island of Jamestown as July is quickly coming to an end. It normally is a 35 minute ride but with traffic it was around an hour today.
You may have remembered last year's views of the tall ships leaving. I was hoping to catch a view of the Black Ships this year but my arrival time was off.
It still was a crowded place in Jamestown yesterday as summer is gearing up for it's final month. You can see the ships and boats off the coast. The last picture is the condominiums that were once a hotel along the Atlantic ocean called the Bay View Hotel.
Isn't the architecture grand?
Are you savoring the last week of July before August arrives?
This looks like a marvelous place in which to spend a summer day, even if the traffic is horrible. That old hotel is a magnificent building.
ReplyDeleteThanks George, yes, I didn't mind the traffic. I love the old architecture and hope to make it back in August to capture more of them spending more time there. Thanks for coming by!
DeleteCheck Caleb Carr gravesite. I loved Jamestown.
ReplyDeleteThanks - I just checked it out online, will have to it check out next time I'm there. He was only governor here for 7 months before he died.
DeleteWater is so very blue - so very pretty.
ReplyDeleteYes, it looked quite clean too Happymore. Thanks for coming by.
DeleteHi Lisa,
ReplyDeleteWow... Water looks so blue and you have got some nice snaps :) Indeed! Condominiums has a grand architecture with a majestic look. Very carefully designed.
