This is a lot of fun! Daniel and I went on a scenic sunset cocktail cruise for my birthday and had an amazing time!!! It is a public dinner cruise, so we will not be alone on the ship. We will have our own area, with special linens, etc, but there will be others on the ship. After dinner there is music and dancing for all.

We will be on one of two ships:

We are scheduled to be on Endless Dreams, which is a very large and elegant ship. Check out the Hornblower website and click on gallery. This is the one we were on for my birthday and it was beautiful, especially the outdoor deck on top of the ship. This is however, subject to change, for any number of reasons. (i.e. maintenance, attendance, etc.)

If there is a change, we will be on Wild Goose. This ship is much smaller and not quite so elegant. It does have some cool historical value though, as it used to belong to John Wayne. It's very pretty with wooden decks, and a more classic look. Either way, I will be very happy to be having dinner for the first time as a married woman...and sharing it with my loved ones!!!
