my blog doesn't have a cute name: Pirate Ship

Our friend invited Schmoo and me to go on a really cool adventure with her and her two visiting grandkids. There is a pirate ship that sails from Ocean City--it is set up for a whole adventure with the kids. IT WAS AWESOME! The kids got a painted tatoo, the crew was in costume, Neptune sent them up a map, they found a message in a bottle in the bay that told them wear to find Pirate Pete, they battled pirate Pete with water cannons, they found the red X in the water and drug up a treasure chest--which was filled with prizes for the kids, they found a "bottle of grog" in the bay that they served to the kids. There was music, limbo, bad pirate jokes and lots of fun.

There were also tears! Some kids got scared now and again--Schmoo was one of them. He was scared of Pirate Pete who pulled up in a boat next to ours. The kids had to battle him with the on board water cannons and it scared the schmoo! He also freaked out when they hauled the big bag on board that had the grog in it, he was scared to death of what they would find in there. The pirate captain pulled him aside and told him a secret about what was in the bag and it calmed his fears. When all was said and done, it was so awesome, and I highly recommend this adventure!
