Black Pearl Philippines costumers celebrated Maritime Week at the Luneta Seafarers Association, where seafarers have gathered for the last 30 years. It was an incredible experience, it was great to meet these people and learn a thing or two about their jobs and life at sea. We just role play it--they live it.
Cheers Gentlemen and thank you to Mr. Don Bagatsing who invited us and to Shelly (the directress) who hung out with us and took care of us. Everyone was great. Oh and thanks to the security guard who made sure we were fine the 3 hours and 30 minutes we were there. More details in my blog.

Hey that's what makes this FUN we do stay in character! I mean off hours the RN and the pirates can conspire and share fries at a burger joint but when it's showtime, it's game on :-)
HUZZAH to the costumers. I'm so prrrrrrroud.
Best regards, Silver (gotta practice that POUT more but I'm sure they appreciated Silver Swan more than they would have my soul sistah Tia)
Ooooh! This looks fun! Next time, I can dress up as the parrot :-) Won't that be a good accessory to all the pirates about?

Hi Cowboy, Hank--oh, sorry--Jack Sparrow and I for the longest time were seriously thinking of inviting you to join us for the Glorietta event. I was thinking of sending you a PM or maybe popping up at one of your gigs. We actually have something in mind for you. Wawi Navarroza will also be joining us. It's on October 27th in Glorietta.
Think we can talk?
