Its A Pirate’s Life For Me
Posted in: Uncategorized
Well, after two trips to the Bahamas last year. I can admit that I am obsessed with pirates . Hopefully, over the summer, I can make another voyage to the Caribbean. I believe my love for pirates began as a young child in Disney Land. My favorite ride at the park was of course, Pirates of the Caribbean. I was able to go to the Bahamas twice the past year. On my honeymoon, I went to the Pirate Museum in Nassau. I was quite interested to learn about Black Beard. I want to go back and research more about the two female Pirates, Mary Read and Ann Bonny. Ann was last seen pregnant and in jail in Nassau. She was the daughter of a South Carolina Plantation Owner. The locals think that her father paid to have her released from jail. She returned to South Carolina to live the life of a Southern Lady. Kind of funny, since she spent years sailing the seas murdering, thieving, drinking rum and sleeping around with Pirates. Black Beard was Beheaded and his head was put on the bow of a ship, and sailed around the Caribbean. I watched Pirates of the Caribbean Movies on TV over the weekend. Monday, I saw the latest addition. “Pirate of the Caribbean, On Stranger Tides.” I was happy to watch Ian McShane as the legendary Pirate, Edward Teach, AKA Black Beard. Penelope Crux was Black Beard’s daughter, and Jacks Sparrow’s long- lost love. I liked the movie, and I was glad that they didn’t stick to the historical facts. Jack Sparrow is not a real pirate. I don’t think that a Disney movie needs to show the beheading of Black Beard. The Queen Anne Revenge was not a magical pirate ship.
