Beach Weekend...Pirate Invasion





We took a quick trip to Beaufort/Atlantic Beach, NC this past weekend. Brian, our friend, was there and called to tell us that they were going to be doing a pirate "invasion" in Beaufort on Sat. We thought it sounded like fun, so into the car we hopped mid Friday. After stopping for supper with Carrie Virginia and meeting her beau, Dylan, in Chapel Hill we pulled into Atlantic Beach around 11. With instructions to Brian that we would see him late the next morning , we went to bed. After a late breakfast(can we say, 11) we headed to Beaufort for the activities that were to start at 1. Finding a place to park was fun, but we did. Called Brian and met up, staking out a pretty good place to watch the action. We were a little disappointed in the reenactment, but enjoyed the costumes and especially the ship. They did a pretty good job on it didn't they? We found out this is the first time they have done it in 25 years, so hopefully they will get better at it.
