Virginia Yorktown

We got up and went to Yorktown. They have really made a neat display here. 
They had a very interactive display. Clothes for the kids to get dressed in. 
These are actual rifles from the war. 
This lady was cooking and preparing food the old way. The meat was stored on salt. They then soaked it for a few days. All the pumpkin squash apples were dried. They would soak to rehydrate and then cook or bake. It was really neat. 
Holding up salted pork. 
See the military camp in back?
Muzzle loading demonstration. 
They let us hold the rifle. 
Medical tent. 
Finding eggs. 
Medical school. 
Actual swords. 
Dora was a French soldier
Emmy was a Continental
Eli was a Hessian. 
We went back to the beach afterwards. Again. 
Look at the unicorn sand castle.
