So we booked tickets on a 2 hour pirate ship cruise. They handed out hands and pirate hats to the kids as they boarded. Then later they came around with hats for the adults. Shannon could hardly wait to get her regular hat off to put on her pirate hat. Nick was so excited. He really thought he was on a pirate ship. We sat in the shade near a port hole and Nick concentrated on shooting anything that moved outside it. The only time he got freaked was when the bad pirate came on board. They then gave the kids squirt guns to shoot the bad pirate with. But Nick was having none of it. Shannon...she was all over it! Dancing, shooting, calling out the answers to the kids trivia. They offered her a pirate job. Seriously.
We ended up having to check our luggage on the trip home because Nick came off the ship with a new gun and sword. He kept talking about getting home to play pirates with Dad. Thank goodness the folks in Florida were cool getting shot at from the car window on our drive home. Think we might have started a gang fight if he'd tried that in Chicago.
