We wasn’t sure what to expect at first, but this turned out to be such a great night. The pickup was on time, boarding was easy, and once we started sailing, the views were just unreal. Dinner was good , and the show kept things fun without being too much. Sitting on the deck with the breeze and city lights was probably my favorite part.
