Yarrr. It twas a fyne time me and the lads had at the Pirate Fest. I being a father and all. We served Morgan’s Co. gunne no. 1 on Sunday. We hope ye all enjoyed the smoke and boom as much as ourselves. It is our 3rd one having missed the first on account of me not being able to trade watches wit none of my shipmates. The Royal Navy be praised, fur we be the best school for aspiring Pirates. Jack. Sailmaker, and gun crew larboard no. 1 searcher.

Well, this is by far the best is the land. I have been to Gasparilla in Florida and Contraband Days in Louisiana and they are not near as cool or fun as Norcal. The crowds are great and it is a perfect family event. I have been to all three so far and plan on going forever.

We had an absolute blast. We were there both days from opening to closing. It was said that there were 18,000 people there on Saturday. Wenches and rhum make a pirate a happy man.

It was great to meet you in person.

I think it’s a fun way to celebrate Fathers’ Day. My buddy came with his lovely family and had a great time. It’s such a fun festival, next year I’m going to that after party.

BTW, Father’s Day weekend is partly WHY all the locals come and it has such huge numbers. Its a grand way for fathers to spend time with their kids and there is something for all at the fest.

See you all next year!
