Plunder the Possibilities at St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum
Tews Chest, the world's only authentic pirate chest
If you think that Johnny Depp is the last word on pirates, get thee to the St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum immediately. Not only does the Pirates of The Caribbean franchise lightly skim the surface of real pirate history, it doesn’t even begin to explore the rich history that this country’s oldest city boasts. Set to open in early November in historic downtown St.Augustine, Fl, the museum features the only authentic pirate chest in the world, Captain Kidd’s last journal, actual pieces of Blackbeard’s gold and a host of other nefarious pirate artifacts.
With one of the world’s largest collections of pirate artifacts, dating from 1563, the St. Augustine Pirate & Treasure Museum supplies non-stop excitement for every member of the family. Highlights include one of only two surviving Jolly Roger flags in the world, dating from the mid 19th century, an original pirate wanted poster from the King of England dating back to 1696 and an interactive exhibit that allows visitors to fire real cannons in a thrilling pirate battle. And for Johnny Depp fans, there’s even Captain Jack Sparrow’s sword and cursed coin in the Hollywood Pirates section. After traveling through centuries of pirate and maritime history, refresh at the nearby Caribbean themed Conch House restaurant with conch fritters, key lime shrimp or a mahi mahi sandwich.

Howl-O-Scream haunted houses at Busch Gardens: An early review
Halloween is a busy season for a theme park writer who also loves haunted houses. Things are finally calming down from opening weekend so I can put out reviews of the haunted houses before Round Two next weekend. Here are quick reviews of the Howl-O-Scream houses at Busch Gardens. I will have updated reviews after this coming weekend. Busch's houses are interesting because they take some haunted "standards" like a crazy doctor, an old toy factory or a prison, but they also choose themes you might not think of, like a pledge house or a rock concert:Taste of Blood: A Different…
Maryland’s Bay Bridge Suspends 2-way Operations — For Now
The Maryland Transportation Authority has suspended two-way operations on the Bay Bridge this afternoon because of rainy weather — creating the likelihood of eastbound delays during peak travel hours.
The authority normally opens one lane to the westbound span to eastbound traffic to ease the evening commute for residents of the Eastern Shore. But in bad weather, it generally does not permit two-way traffic on that span, restricting eastbound traffic to the two lanes of the original bridge.
The authority said it could reverse the decision if the weather improves. Officials also warned eastbound travelers to exercise caution at exits 28 (Cape Ste. Claire Road) and 29 (Bay Dale Drive) because of standing water in the roadway.
