VLM got a huge makeover and looks better then ever! We loved going there. You won't recognise parts of Jefferson Avenue anymore. They have really built a ton of stuff.
LOL -- I've always had a wandering soul. I didn't want to be stationed there in the first place, so I made do I was always heading out of the area at a moment's notice. One time I drove north to Quebec via Niagra Falls & Montreal (that was with my 1st spouse -- the only time we didn't argue was when we were on the road ) Another time, I drove alone all the way down to the Florida Keys via the backroads along the coast. It was a very relaxing trip, especially since it was a very mild January.
I've been to the Virginia Living Museum once...or twice. Not in the last 10 years though.
I've never been to the Mariners Museum...
When do you guys school systems have spring break? Ours is April 7-15 (Well, 9-13). School lets out June 13, barring any snow days.
When did your school system start?
skaterbabscpst said:She does private parties as well, so that may be something to think of if there are a lot of us able to go.
We started the day after Labor day as well. Our Winter Break ran from the 22-1.
I've got out my school calendar right now.
There were 5 no-school days in November, 6 in December (excluding weekends around winter break),
3 in January, and 3 early release days.
Barring any bad weather there will be
2 in February, 5 in April, 1 in May June has 3 early release as well.
I think our calendar runs 180, or 182--with the 2 bad weather days built in.
That certainly is much more reasonable than 50 dollars a pop at a theme park.
The zoo is a little pricey, but for the under 5 crowd it's excellent. It's a bit small, so older kids may not enjoy it.
MIL & I were talking today about taking the kidlets to the DC zoo sometime in June, it's free to get in, although parking isn't cheap.

At this point, I wouldn't mind taking a trip to the zoo in Richmond. A little out of the way, but a great way to get my kids out of the house for the day while Dh sleeps, once summer vacation starts (mid-June here). The VA Aquarium would be fantastic, too.
BTW, there are a couple of go-kart places: one is out on the northern side of Williamsburg, off of I-64. I was just out that way the other day, at the sucky outlet malls nearby. Another is in VA Beach. I have a brochure for that one, having been suckered into doing a Flat Stanley project recently for a cousin's child.
Lots of natural caverns and other outdoorsey stuff to do here in VA, too, for the nature-lovers... a couple are off of I-81, near the I-64 junctures.
