Praise for the Champagne Cruise

"I wanted to again thank you all for a fantastic time. The pre-party at the Malt Shop was great and everybody was so kind. The boat trip was excellent and I got to see a baby black bear (that's all I wanted to see), and I met some wonderful people. The food at Agness was so delicious, I can't stop raving about the salmon. Oh and the champagne and the complimentary glass just topped it all off!

I can't wait until next year!"
