Pirate Cruise

Last night was definitely Elijah's favorite moment of the trip, at least so far. We went on a Pirate Cruise. What is a pirate cruise, you ask? Just what it sounds like. You go out and board the giant pirate ship, set off into the open seas and cruise around for a while looking for dolphins. All while the scurvy pirate crew entertains your kids, and even puts them to work swabbing the deck!


This post is going to be one giant picture post, so hang on!


Waiting for Papa to buy our tickets.

He loved the big cannon!
Our pirate vessel, the "Sea Dragon".

Two of the pirate crew, "Bones" and "Jack-Knife Jake".

The Captain, "Fearless Phil".

Consider yourself warned!

As soon as we set off a huge water gun fight broke out on deck!

That's Elijah shooting one of the pirates, "Irish Katie".

After all that mess the boys had to swab the deck!

"Aarrrggg!"

Looking for dolphins, we didn't really see any.

Sword fight!

Next we followed the map to the spot where a pirate named "Billy Bow-Legs" once tossed his treasure overboard, and then hoisted the sunken treasure aboard!

Helping the other kids pull the treasure out of the water.

Waiting to see what's inside.

Treasure!

The sun was setting by the time we were heading back.

The End!
