Never got to go. Bus left without myself and my sister. We got there half an hour early. In sending me directions they never said that bus would be in front door. I was in parking handicap. At 9.12 went inside senior center and was told bus left. In this day and age everyone has cell phone. He left early knowing that two more people should be there. Is this a gimmick you play. We are both handicapped and was looking forward to this trip. Shame on that bus driver. No host o n bus??? We could have met the bus 🚃

The show was certainly an entertaining one ! and they put on great music. Loved the food and will go see them again soon….

You might want to edit your brochure to accurately reflect the description on the Lake George site which mentions dozens rather than hundreds of hot air balloons. Visiting the Norman Rockwell Museum and the relaxing Lake George cruise are definite pluses!
