Pirates have invaded Hawaii...Pirates of the Caribbean that is. They are filming a couple of miles down the road from us so we decided earlier this week to go check out the pirate ship. We drove down to a park that was next to the boat harbor that the ship is docked at and tried to see through the trees. 
Not such a great view but then we realized that we could walk a little ways down the path to get a clearer shot.
As we watched for a little bit we realized there were actually people parking down at the harbor and walking up to the set. So we hopped back in the car and drove over to the harbor to see if we could get a closer look. 
This was as close as we could get but do you see Johnny Depp? Yeah, we didn't either. Apparently they film at night which is why they let all these people stand there and take pictures. You would think I'm a big fan of the movies if I'm driving all over trying to get a great shot of it but actually I was a little spooked by the first movie, had no desire to see the second and have no plans of going to see the third. Why did we go see the ship then, you ask? I thought the boys would like to see it...and maybe we would get a glimpse of a "star". But after about 30 seconds my boys said "mommy, can we go home?" 
So after the Honey Pumpin truck blocked our view I thought we had had enough and we hopped back in the car and drove home. The End.

How fun!! What is a Honey Pumpkin truck? So no Johnny Depp? Mom
Yes, what is Honey Pumpin??
I assumed Honey Pumpin was a sewage truck...not sure why Honey is in the name other than there is a bee doing the pumping. :o) But maybe it's a bee hive remover...I like that better.
How cool! That "ship" is fabulous!! Some of our favorite movies...especially the first one.
