However, it seems that Allen >Bates has a special reason for going to Jamestown (maybe a direct >descendent of John Rolfe?). We are from California. This is our fist DC capital trip. We saw Jamestown in the movie. Throught that may be interesting to see some of the old East Coast first immigrant or civil war favors, which we do not have in the West Coast. Do you recommend anything "must see" outside of DC capital? 3 hours round trip of 6 hours driving of spending a whole day of not seeing much, probably not worth it. Thank you.
