Wait, wait!  Jamestown's reconstruction is not far from Williamsburg,
which has lots of old restored buildings to see.  In fact, it was so
close that I parked at the Williamsburg visitors' center lot and got
my bike out of my car and just biked - only a couple of miles - to
Jamestown.  Beautiful drive along the shore and across the causeway.
So go there to see both places and your drive will be worth it.

BTW, since you are sending your messages via a computer, why not use
that computer to look up driving times and distances?  And also google
"Jamestown" and "Williamsburg" while you're at it.
