We had late seating on the 6/11. Our servers were hustling that night and encouraging us not to miss the Pirate party. But additionally, there was a short "Pirate parade" by the servers in the dining room, towards the end of dinner time, that we stayed to watch. After that we went immediately to decks 9 &10. The music had already started, but I don't think we missed much, if anything. We got there before Capt. Hook & Mr. Smee appeared, and it wasn't so crowded yet that we couldn't find a good place to stand/dance.
