Mainly just a nice break! My dad belongs to several senior clubs and he gets invites to day trips and sometimes entire vacations. For some of them I come along to keep him company and we've had some pretty good times. Sometimes some of these elderly folks say and do the funniest and darnest things.

The river cruise we went on was the River Lady on Tom's River. The food was pretty good even though the boat was smaller than what I was originally expecting. There were only a few moments where the waves got a tiny bit rough and there was a little bit of tossing around, but in general it was a pretty gentle ride.
