Ahoy, Avast and Aye!!!

The Pirates have been after my computer all day, and I haven't been able to post till now! But I just couldn't let Talk Like A Pirate Day! pass without telling you about this fabulous party! A very dear friend of mine was celebrating her birthday, and decided to rent a REAL Pirate Ship for the event! 50 lucky souls came dressed to kill, I mean thrill, at dusk at a secret pier by the bay! First we had a sundown dinner and helped shoot off cannons created especially for the birthday girl! (Isn't she adorable with her cavalier by her side?)

I was thrilled to have my own Pirate in red, as my mate and escort me on board! I wore a matching red scarf and his hat as my prize! The weather was perfect and the view sublime! We had real cannon-shots at sundown, and birthday cake by dusk... In celebration of today, I remember my day as a Pirate!!! AYE!!!
