This weekend, I have been invited to a variety of events around Los Angeles, the first I chose to attend was the 2022 Pirate Invasion at the park near the Queen Mary downtown Long Beach. The Pirates last invaded Long Beach in 2019 right before Covid hit. I was there then as well and what a fun time we had.
The 2022 invasion celebrated the return of the pirates to Long Beach and what an event that turned out to be, a time for old comrades to reminisce about the good old days of plundering and looting, not to mention drinking and carousing. Here are some pictures of our local pirates and privateers, even Captain Jack turned it! Enjoy!
