Port bow view

Carolyn has to work fast to blow out the 60 candles

Almost has them all, some of the cookie on the rear started to melt!!

It took four of us to light them all but al least the sails didn't go up in flames!!

Carolyn is almost out of breath!

The wind coming in from the ocean was pretty strong. The storm she is blowing in Matey!

If you look at the wafer cookies at the rear you can see them melting and curling!!!

The view from inside the living room of the beach house.

We are right on the beach but it was too windy to go out on the beach for a walk, nd then the rain started to come!!

Winter waves

More waves

I was standing on the deck watching the waves.

So Saturday was the big party day for my sister, Carolyn's 60th birthday party. She rented this amazing beach house in Aptos, CA. Unfortunately the weather was stormy but the waves were awesome.

We got the pirate cake over the mountain hyway and to the house in one piece. I was able to set it all up and everyone was amazed.

Some of us had our pirate garb on and we had some family pictures taken. We roasted Carolyn, and had a great time. Then it was time to light the candles. All 60 of them!! We almost burned the whole ship up!! Some of the flames caused the chocolate cookies in the back to curl. But Carolyn got them all blown out and saved the cake. She was out of breath for a moment but she got them all.

I went outside on the deck to take some pictures of the waves and the wind through the Pirate flag.
