More from Richmond



 On Saturday, July 20, we went to downtown Richmond.  The weather was awesome for being outside.  We bought tickets for a canal boat tour, and we walked around for a bit before our tour.

 Captain Cotton was the tour guide for the canal cruise.  He was awesome because of his passion for history.  The cruise route is probably only 2 miles long with an enthusiastic story teller as tour guide.  Captain Cotton threw in some corny jokes that reminded me of a typical ride on the Jungle Cruise at Disney World.




At night, we went to a minor league baseball game in Richmond.  It was 80s night, so the Ghostbusters were there for photo ops.  Matt wore his Walley World shirt which was quite appropriate for the 80s theme.  We all enjoyed 80s prices at the snack bar: $1 sodas and $1 popcorn.
