A NEW GALLERY ~

Happy Birthday to Mary~

THE WHYDAH GALLEY SUNK OFF CAPE COD IN 1717.

An avid history lover, I have read about her story and 'Black Sam Bellamy' for many years. Her wreck was discovered in the 1980's.

The Science Center in Portland Maine currently has an exhibit of artifacts and the pirate treasure she carried, presented by National Geographic.

We went to Portland for the day and saw the wonderful exhibit, had some great local seafood and homemade gelato, and strolled the old port.

There were human remains found on the Whydah.

They are not a part of this exhibit, but are sensitively portrayed here

They are at the Whydah museum in Provincetown, Mass. on Cape Cod.

This shoe, stocking and leg bone were found on the Whydah.

They are believed to be those of the young boy on board, 9 year old John King.

They are not a part of the exhibit.

Fresh Maine big-bellied clams and Gulf of Maine shrimp. The BEST, most yummy clam chowder we ever had. You could stand a spoon up in it!
