Pirate party

A little belated, but we finally had Stoney's birthday party. Christmas time is just not good for birthday parties, and since Stoney wanted to do the party at the Park, we waited till the weather was nicer. And the weather came through, even though there were scattered showers forecasted, they didn't fall here.

We had a pirate themed party and had lots of fun.


We had a treasure hunt that the kids LOVED. They were running all over the place to finally get to the clue that revealed the locoation of the treasure.




The treasure consisted of eye patches (what would a pirate be without one?) and golden Florins (well, euros really).

After that we had a mighty sea battle. Two teams of pirates tried to sink the other team's ship with water balloons. We had so much fun! The balloons were so thick, they didn't burst very quickly, they just kept on bouncing, so the battle kept going for ages. It finally ended in a tie when both pirate teams ran out of canon balls (balloons).






After the sea battle there was some good old fashioned fun.
