Trick or Treat?

We've been keen to find a place where the kid's could join in the Halloween fun and games that is so popular here in the US. Solomons, a little village in Maryland on the Patuxent River, looked like it might fit the bill and turned out to do so admirably.

- A walk around the village showed plenty of preparations for Halloween
- and we carved our own pumpkin in piratical style
- we all dressed up (and met a couple of other sailing kids). Issie the witch, Max the doctor - really, his choice - me the pirate and Gesa the 'mad woman' (how appropriate, ho hum)
- the kids count their haul of candy back on board. No eating until tomorrow.....
