Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate’s Life For Me!


Christmas Day!! Merry Christmas! We had a wonderful day filled with anticipation for the pending festivities aboard the pirate ship “Marigalante.” As the sun set into Banderas Bay, the Marigalante Pirate ship was transformed into a magical place to celebrate the mystery and romance of Mexico. At 5 pm, a friendly crew of pirates was waiting at the Maritime Terminal to welcome us aboard the Marigalante. Pictures with parrots were a big hit!



We boarded the ship and set sail around 6 pm and promptly we were presented with drinks to get the party started. They had a lot of dancing and games. The put some women in the barracks and then had them dance on stage to compete, then Cody was pulled out of the audience to dance along with the game where he did a striptease on stage (no pics, I was laughing to hard!). Lindsay won the raffle, a t-shirt and a head scarf.

The men's room had a very special photo opportunity for Tad!

Pirates of the Bay was a memorable, adult oriented Banderas Bay sunset cruise that included a delicious dinner, lively pirates and a whole lot of "Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rum" fun!


After dinner we enjoyed a a pre-Hispanic cultural fire dancer show.


Then the entertaining pirate show ends with an incredible fireworks display.
Towards the end, a dance circle was formed and Tad & Cody ended up break dancing in the middle together. We laughed so hard! And the best part?? It’s all captured on video! LOL..


This was the best Christmas Ever!
