This weekend we went to the Beaufort Pirate Invasion in the coastal town of Beaufort, NC. It is a festival with the main event being a re-enactment of a 1747 invasion on the town of Beaufort by Spanish privateers. People all dress up like pirates and the booths have swords and other pirate items for sale. This area has a ton of pirate history with the wreck of Blackbeard's ship the Queen Anne's Revenge. The boys liked watching the cannons and all the different ships in the port. The event was recommended to me by the maintenance guy, Jim, who has been fixing the last few things left uncomplete for our move-in.
