This journey starts in Williamsburg before moving on to the James River and the plantation houses along its banks. Downstream is Jamestown where early English settlers arrived in the 17th century. From there we head to the historical site of Yorktown where the English surrendered to George Washington. Then, to the wild Peninsula of creeks and marshes at Assateague Island with its wild horses.
