A Day with Pirates, ARGG

For the 6th year Pirates took over Broadway Square in Fells Point this weekend. Pirates of all ages were wandering around the neighborhood and taking part in a variety of pirate themed activities. From costume contests to a live battle at sea, the day brought out the pirate in every attendee (even those not dressed in pirate attire!).

Pirate Roller Derby? Why Not!

I was a little skeptical at first, but was certainly entertained by the pirate roller derby expo and who wouldn't love watching the dozen miniature pirates take the stage in the children's costume contest. Fells proved to be a place where "privateers are the history and pirated come to play!"

While in Fells Point I couldn't help but make a stop in Mr. Yogato. A place I had been meaning to visit for a while, Mr. Yogato opened on the square about a year ago. The delicious fat-free yogurt comes in a variety of flavors and can be topped with 40 different toppings- ranging from fresh fruit to cereal and cookie pieces. Mr. Yogato is all about fun, they provide a variety of games and it is not unusual to find employees encouraging sing-a-longs and challenging their customers to the "question of the day." I am happy to see that Baltimore has joined the fro-yo revolution and knowing that a trip to Mr. Yogato only costs a few calories makes the visit even more enticing!
