Sure, your date is sweet, but you'll both share in creating something even sweeter when you both visit the Bergey's Dairy Farm on your next romantic date.

Despite the fact that the Battleship Wisconsin is located in Norfolk, die-hard history buffs don't mind the drive at all. This impressive battleship museum is one of the largest and the last ever built by the United States Navy. When you visit, you can take a dramatic walk on its deck on a self-guided tour and see other parts of the ship. A gift shop as well as several excellent photo opportunities are available at this popular historic attraction.

When you take the family to Gum Tree Farm, they will experience a unique adventure that involves plenty of wildlife and a good amount of learning, too! The farm produces purebred and commercial sheep and is also the home of several chickens, horses, ducks, donkeys, cows, goats and rabbits, among many others. The farm also produces fiber and exhibits samples of fiber plants. Workers on the farm frequently demonstrate the process of dyeing wool which the kids will surely enjoy. Also, the abundant wildlife in the surrounding area of the farm is protected from hunters, so don't be surprised to see hawks, quail, rabbits, deer and gray foxes during your visit.
