Birthday Dinner Cruise

Monday was Ed’s birthday and he wanted to go on a dinner cruise.  Lake George Steamboat Company has a ship that does dinner cruises.
Lac Du Saint Sacrement
We boarded the Saint Sacrement at 5:30 pm.  We were assigned a small table by the window and we had a great view of the lake.   We enjoyed cocktails before we joined the dinner line.  The buffet was very good.  Choices of beef, chicken and white fish along with vegetables and seasoned red potatoes.  They also had a good salad bar and dinner rolls.  We were on board for 3 hours.  We cruised about half way up the lake before turning around and coming back down the other side.  The eastern shore of the lake has an abundance of houses on the lake.

There was very good entertainment.  A guy playing a keyboard and a woman singer.  They had a computer that they used for the percussion sounds.  Ed had to ask to sing.  And they let him….He sang ‘Twelve of Never” one of the few songs he knows by heart. Karaoke has spoiled him.  He used to know the words to all the songs from the 50’s but since singing karaoke, he now looks for the words.

I was standing back with Nancy, the other singer and they were both pleasantly surprised that he could sing!!   I think he had a good birthday!!!

  4. You don't want me to sing, either, so I'll just wish you happy birthday right here.
