When you enter the Pirate Ride there is a picture of two female Pirates. (like the ones of Sparrow and the male pirates on the right) Has anyone taken a picture? I am looking for one.

There were a couple of real, historical women pirate captains in the Caribbean. I'm wondering if the pictures are of these ladies.

We don't have a picture, but the painting is of Anne Bonny and Mary Read. You can find out more about their history on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page).

They are the women the last two posts have mentioned. When I was a kid I had a "Pirates" book published by Disney that told their stories.

Wikipedia seems to have taken a lot of the MAry Read and Anne Bonny history from a fictional book based on them. In truth there isn't too much known about them. Mostly the records are from the trial.

I had never seen their picture before I took the 50th tour and they pointed it out. I look for it every time now, but it sure is hard to see since it is way back in the corner behind a bunch of crates.

It took about 10 rides on Pirates to do it (like I'm complaining.... LOL( but I got it! Hope you like it!! :D
