Romantic Stalking
Last Saturday Jen and I took advantage of a weekend to ourselves and decided to go back to the Delta King in Old Sacramento. This is the boat that we got married on and it is coming up to 6 months ago that we were saying our vows. Anyway the romantic in me decided to treat Mrs B and so I booked us a state room, a 4 course dinner and a theatre trip. The boat has it's own theatre on the bottom deck and we went to see a play called Boy gets Girl.
Now this was advertised as a romantic package and certainly everything up until the play was romantic. Our room had a lovely big bed and a lovely bath with ceramic feet. The meal was delicious and for one of the courses we had Caesar salad which they prepared at our table. We could have had wine but due to an unfortunate incident in Napa a few years ago I can not drink too much wine and with Jen being pregnant we decided to have soft drinks instead.
So far so good, we then descended down to the lovely theatre that they have at the bottom of the boat, and things changed. I have no one to blame but myself, I should have read what the play was about, but I thought from the title and the fact that the whole package is designed as a romantic one that the play would be a lighted hearted romantic comedy. What it was in fact was a play about a man who stalks a woman with terrifying results. Nice.
That said it was a good play and we did enjoy it (as much as you can enjoy things like that), and it didn't ruin our lovely night together. Can't wait for the next time we can do something like that.
