How did I miss this? I would definitely have applied for this event, I love pirate history. Did you know that there is a day called "Talk like a Pirate Day". I love the sea and anything based around water, I have a place on a Florida river where pirate ships used to travel, shoals were created in various areas to keep the pirate ships from passing. I am an avid scuba diver and am always looking for and fantasizing about finding unearthed treasures. Scary but true, pirates were very real and still are. Can't wait to see this show.
Arrrrrrrrnt you glad I am done????
