Karadimos Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I've had on me brain, fer a few years now, a trip of such magnitude that it would make the most deadly of sea creatures shutter in envy. At some point, when the time is best for the taking, I plan on heading to Venezuela, acquiring a boat (or hitching a ride), and setting sail, destination Miami. I'll follow the islands 'round the Caribbean, taking my time. It will be a great adventure! Anyone have any dream trips that they really are hoping to go on? I'm trying to set up a real Pirate-themed town...somewhere. I need some help with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duchess Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Barnstormed around the US for a month in a small plane. I'll probably do that again sometime in the future, possibly extend that down to the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capn'rob Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I'm finishing a restoration on my boat and upon completion the trip I want to make is the "Great Eastern Circumnavigation". That's up the Hudson, through the Erie Canal, the Lakes on to the Mississippi. Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. Cruise the "Redneck Riviera" on down to the Big Bend and Florida's West Coast. At that point it's either through the Callusahatchie to Lake Okeechobee and the Loxahatchee or on down to the Keys. I'll be leaving from and returning to North Carolina. As a younger man I sailed offshore to the Caribbean, the Bahamas. Sailed from New England to Bermuda and thought we'd never see land or another dawn! We did! I've sailed through the Panama Canal and across the Pacific to the Marquesas, French Polynesia then up to Hawaii. As a delivery crew man and later Captain, I logged several thousands of miles, all the while making a living. My "Dream" cruise for the future is to ship my boat, deck freight on a container ship to Europe. Then spend several years criss crossing th3e canals of the Continent in the summer and digging the Med in the winter. In these three score years I've been around I've lived several of my dreams. I'm most grateful for that. I have also continued to reach for my new dreams with the same hope as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read about the Star Clipper (I think that was the name of the company) tours of Thailand in 'Islands' magazine. Looks beautiful there.

AlexRoberts Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 A dream of mine is to own a island which it is possible and run a pirate festival or full on area based on piracy for anyone who is into it can come and sail to it and enjoy a life of piracy without worrying.

hurricane Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Well, it's not the Caribbean but taking a press gang to Oregon to do a pirate dinner show for a casino up there. Getting paid to fly across the country with my closest friends, write a three act play and perform it and then hang around the next day and play with the general public. I'm good with that these days. Very blessed. Although I have to laugh that when I lived in Seattle they flew me to the Caribbean to do this and not that I'm in Florida they're flying us back the other way. -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Mission Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Barnstormed around the US for a month in a small plane. I'll probably do that again sometime in the future, possibly extend that down to the Caribbean. But will you t take me to a pirate thing in your little rubberband-run driven prop plane? Noooooo.... I want to go to the South Pacific some day. I want to see some of the islands that figured into WWII. See the lush flora and fauna and whatever else that I happen to find in these places. I also want to dive in Papau, New Guinea on this site: Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

DeviousDi Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Aye, a dream .... I have one 'n' she be a simple one - to raise a crew and sail out agin' the M.S. Kenora next season. There be pockets laden with coin waitin' to be lightened but ... a crew? There are them who've a mind fer it but be too long in the tooth 'n' there be them of stalwart build who don't have the heart fer it! Beginnin' to wonder if'n it'll be one ol' hag agin a whole ship .... maybe them be even odds? Captain of Enterprise out of Rheault Bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elena Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Dreams? A sea cruise or something... or, also, having the opportunity to participate (even watch, if nothing more ...active) at a pirate festival like you are describing... More feasible ones? To have "a crew" with whom to write all the Age of Sail adventures I'm thinking about (and many others suggested by the crew)... and also to continue writing my stories... -A swashbuckling adventures RPG, set in 1720 in West Indies; winner of Distant Fantasies& RPG-D Member's Choice Award; RPG Conference's Originality Award; 2011 & 2012 Simming Prizes- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
