it was hilarious. A couple of champagne glasses later and a view on the Thames River with Big Ben lighting up the night sky worked its magic on the evening to bring out the beauty and the charm of London. To see the monuments, the bridges all alight from the river cruise, was an experience not to be missed. It is breathtaking despite the cold evening. However, upstairs on the deck they had big fire warmers and it was very pleasurable to stand on the open deck sipping champagne, watching the view whilst listening to the jazz band play from the lower deck which created a fantastic atmosphere. With the announcement of the cabaret dancer, there was a quick rush downstairs before the show started. The dancer was very talented and looked beautiful in her lingerie costume. She was graceful, and did her burlesque per- formance in very good taste, and with the swinging music of the times it was a real treat. She performed two different routines that night, and both were really enthralling indeed.We really enjoyed all the performances, as the band carried on playing some really catchy tunes, while floating away on the Thames and chatting around with other guests. It is amazing how time goes fast when you’re having fun, but unfortunately our cruise came to an end, and with great reluctance we had to disembark at the Savoy Pier, where we waved our good- byes, and went back to the reality of the 21 st century. What a great time and what a fabulous event, surely to take part again. www.ssatlantica.com bite nightout
