Cruising On The Odyssey for Wine, Chocolate & Brunch with Blog & Tweet Boston

Last Sunday, I was invited by Jen from Blog & Tweet Boston to attend one of Odyssey Boston’s Champagne & Chocolate Brunch Cruises. All I needed to hear was that there’d be complimentary brunch (including wine & beer) and I was sold. I decided to bring The Boy for my “Plus 1” seeing as though the past two cruises we’ve tried to go on were poured out. Hey, three times a charm, right?

When we woke up to 70-degree sunny weather in Boston, I knew we were in for a treat! The two-hour cruise took off from Rowes Wharf right outside the Boston Harbor Hotel, where all the cruisers congregated beforehand.

[happy campers!]

We boarded the boat about 45-minutes early, and went straight to the bar for our first complimentary drink. I went with a glass of white wine, and then hiked up to the top deck to soak up some extra sun.

Funny fact: There was actually a wedding reception aboard celebrating, so we tried to stay out of their way as much as possible!

After a little sunshine, we joined the rest of the bloggers downstairs for a brunch buffet. There was such a wonderful display of food, including scrambled eggs, Belgian waffles, Penne Primavera, Smoked Salmon, Orange-Ginger Tilapia, Roasted Sirloin and cheese galore. For dessert there was a beautiful chocolate fountain with sweet dippers like strawberries, rice crispy treats, and marshmallows. Perfect with a glass of wine might I add!

Following the feast, The Boy & I we went for a much-needed breather to the upper deck after a quick visit to the bar for Octoberfest (for him) and a mimosa (for me).

While up there, one of the tour guides shared some fun facts about Boston including various urban myths & legends. I loved his energy & enthusiasm, and definitely learned some new tidbits about the city.

Overall, the cruise was such a lovely (and delicious) way to spend an afternoon in the city. I’d recommend The Odyssey Cruises for anyone looking for a romantic getaway or afternoon bonding time with their girlfriends.

A special thank you to Blog & Tweet Boston for providing two complimentary tickets to Odyssey’s Champagne & Chocolate Brunch Cruise.

  1. Hola!! he estado leyendo al menos unas 4 horas en la red de
    internet esta tarde y no pude ver nada tan genial como tu escrito.
    Me ha encantado mucho la forma que tienes al escribir imagino que es lo
    que me ha llegado. A mi parecer, si un porcentaje alto los
    propietarios de webs tuvieran tan buenos contenidos, Internet seria mucho mas
    practico. Espero que vayas por esta linea y pueda seguir bebiendo escritos de
    la fuerza que tiene este.
