RE: The Tales of Pirates - Bartholomew Roberts "Black Bart"
We have similar fest in Omiš, Croatia, but pirates are celebrated here as they were our pirates robbing The Republic of Venice which was our archenemy at the time. :)
We have a pirate´s day when François LeClerc (known as Pata de Palo or wooden leg) attacked and took over my island and then asked for a ransom, so now they celebrate the pirate´s day too LOL, but then each five years they make this additional "virtual" battle between the ship and castle.:)
Sounds cool :) I don't now much about him besides him being a privateer from Normandy. I will investigate him some more, who knows, maybe I end up writing about him one day :)
