Pirate's Day


The local maritime museum was having a special Pirate Day.  Victoria booked Ellie and I in for a sailing on a pirate boat.  We were excited about our adventure.  We took the bus into town and Ellie picked the very back seat.  She enjoyed seeing over all the cars and once in town we had a short walk to the museum.  Ellie colored and cut out a pirate hat (not the one she is wearing in the photos) and received a balloon sword from a very energetic pirate.  We waited in line for the boat ride while watching kids have sword fights.  Once one the boat, Ellie was a little unsure of sitting on the beach at the side of the boat but she enjoyed the ride.  She was very excited when she realized the boat was going under the harbor bridge and she could see all the bridge parts from the water.   As the boat docked it started to rain and we were lucky to get off before we were too wet.  It was a great day for the two of us.  Thanks Victoria for all the planning!
