We had a fantastic time. Our son plays in the high school jazz band and really enjoyed listening to the live music. The food was great at lunch, especially the bread pudding (5 stars itself)! I could have sat and listened to the paddle wheel for the whole trip it was so relaxing. Aside from the rain it was a perfect steamboat cruise.
