A'hoy Matey's

The annual Pirate Festival arrived with a ship hitting land on Tybee Island and taking captive the Tybee mayor. We went to Tybee on Saturday for the parade and events. It was a hot day, in the 90's, which brought an afternoon thunderstorm right when the parade started. Luckily we stood in a restaurant door and then under the event tents and could still see the parade.

Here is a view of one of the craft tents with the beach in the back ground for a perspective view.






















The end of the parade route, which people who have visited probably recognize at North Beach.















The rain made it difficult to get good pictures.
















Pirates take the streets...
















Christine and I hiding from the rain, which you can see from the above pictures most people were fine getting soaked in the thunderstorm.
















This was a Jay Leno moment photo. This couple was sitting under the "No Smoking" pirate having a cigarette.
