Amateur Traveler episode 81. Today the amateur traveler goes to

Jamestown, Williamsburg, and Yorktown.

I got my bags back packed on a roll.

I'm heading out there and I'm ready to go.

Looking real good in my passport photo.

15 hour flight, oh, I don't think I'll ever be coming home.

You know I love it.

I got to see one more cathedral

That was German tourist in the Philippines who thought that the security of the

middle airport was overzealous and he performed an impromptu strip after being asked to go through the

aircraft announcements.
