While in Georgia we went to dinner at the "Pirates House". What a fun place this was. It was a real historic place from the 1750's. No joke. The inside was really awesome with original ceiling beams and doorways. It reminded me of the belly of a ship with all the wood and the furnishings. They even had the most awesome old stove that I am still swooning over! I'd love to have one in my kitchen. When they took us to our table, they had lil' hats and all the trimmings for the kiddos to wear. Notice that even the biggest kiddos got in on the goods! They also had a male and a female pirate that wandered around during dinner. They kept harassing the kids. Paisley was not amused! She would rather be surrounded by a princess or two (who can blame the girl?!) but this was truly a piece of heaven for Easton and John. The pirates did magic tricks for us and gave the kids some gold coins (not the chocolate kind!). After a VERY delicious dinner, we went on a tour of the house guided by the female pirate. She did a really good job--although the kids didn't get most of her jokes--I thought she was hysterical. It was a really fun night. Glad they didn't hoodwink us to the kitchen for cleanup or make us mop the deck and most definetely glad we didn't have to walk the plank! If you're ever in Savannah, the Pirates House is a MUST see place to eat some REALLY great food and entertain the kiddos for a couple of hours. Just ask Easton and John--and try to hire a sitter for Paisley!
