Williamsburg vs. Monticello?

The Colonial Houses that would accommodate three people were already booked.

The logistics are convoluted due to reasons that I won’t bore everyone with but we’re going into D.C., down to Williamsburg, to Monticello on the way back to D.C. for several days, down to the Outer Banks, back to D.C., home. Not an elegant flow but karma. Unfortunately the D.C. to Williamsburg leg is on a Friday afternoon. We have an 11:30 rendezvous for lunch to make and I hope that if we’re on the road by 1:00 or 1:30pm the road won’t be too bad. As a precaution, our dinner reservation that evening isn’t until 8:00pm in case we both get a late start and the traffic is bad.

Sometimes in putting these trips together I feel like Slim Pickens in “Dr. Strangelove.”

Kjofkw, I did indeed pick one of the “official” hotels. The package couldn’t be beat.

Booking Monticello tomorrow. Leaving only 3-4 of the social rendezvous to nail down, two of which are due to CC.
