Privateering on the Chesapeake Bay

Today, Jeff and I forayed into Baltimore again. We went to the inner harbour area because Jeff seemed to remember there being tall ships there. so, we walked around and up to a schnoor names Pride of Baltimore II, and saw a sign that said they were doing a day sail this weekend saturday and sunday 1-4 p.m. I called them up and surprise, surprise, they had spots, so we signed up. So, after eating some wonderful crab cakes by the harbour, we went back to board at 12:45 p.m. We set sail and guess what? We had half of the normal crew on the boat, so they had us help them It was such a pretty day for sailing too. We sailed by Fort McHenry where they were doing live cannon demonstrations, so suddenly we heard cannons booming!
