Part 2. Rainy Days and Pirate Ships.

Okay, picking up the story where we left off would put us at Tuesday. Tuesday we were supposed to go on a Pirate Cruise, but it rained instead. So, what happens when the troops get restless?Fun with stickers! Aunt Ellen had quite a few on her person as well.That evening, we ventured out to the Arcade that was on Main Street. Yay for ski ball!And the carousel was outside. Pics didn't come out so well, but you can get the idea.
So that puts us to Wednesday. The sun was out so the Pirate Cruise was back on. Shiver me timbers! My nephew is a very scurvy pirate!That was our sea-worthy vessel, the Sea Gypsy. The pirate adventure commenced. A message in a bottle was found while following the map to the treasure. The terrible pirate, Slash, was found and soundly defeated.Look at that aim! Sarah steered the boat, quite well considering that she's too small to see where she's going.And the treasure was found! Booty was claimed:
And the Jolly Roger was brought down.
So we returned to land, and got our legs back while enjoying some ice cream.
That night we attempted to continue with the Pirate theme, but the Pirate Putt-putt was ridiculously crowded, so we went to the Animal Kingdom Putt-putt. Sadly, I forgot the battery to my camera in the charger and have no photos. Hopefully, Ellie will get around to posting some soon.

So, onto Thursday. It rained. Again. Boo. The Jerseyians went off to Plimouth Plantation. Ellie, Sue and I went out to lunch. When we cruised back to the house, we picked up C4 and went bowling. Not regular bowling, funny bowling. Candlestick bowling. I was absolutely horrible. C4, as always, took it very seriously. I think that's about it for this post. Except that I think there needs to be some knitting content. So here are my finished Beachy Socks. I finished up the second one two exits before Ellie's house. So they are officially vacation socks. Love them - can't wait for the weather to get chilly enough to wear.
