It was a beautiful evening. Nice smooth river cruise. only complaint was the drunken bridal party blasting their own music and dancing in the aisles while drowning out the band that was playing, but that's not the crew's fault.

The captain and cruise director were both fantastic with our kids! They got to visit the captain in the command center and take a picture with him. Great fun! Thank you Director Missy and Captain Mike!
