Doumar's (Home of original Ice Cream Cone Machine)
Enjoy a stop at Doumar's, home of the world's first ice cream cone machine. Abe Doumar created the first ice cream cone at the World's Fair of 1904 in St. Louis. Today, the family business still bakes cones on the original machine. While at Doumar's, guests will be given an introduction and history and everyone will be treated to yummy ice cream and cone.

"Evening in Margaritaville"
Tonight's event is an "Evening in Margaritaville," dedicated to that fictitious Island where everyone is young, where the sun and the music is hot and you waste away a few idle days. We have a large ballroom with islands of table and chairs. Music is playing as you enter the room and dancing is underway.

This evening's menu is a healthy, plated Caribbean meal with a little shrimp, a little chicken, vegetables and fruit.
The main show is "Changes in Attitude" one of the best Jimmy Buffett Tribute bands in America.
Wear your flip flops and brightly colored Aloha Shirts. This is a festive themed party, with a show band, a shag dance floor, and a cash bar with Margaritas.

Virginia Beach Sightseeing Tour
Enjoy beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay as you learn about the history of the resort city and get the pulse on current day Virginia Beach.

See the First Landing Cross at Cape Henry where the English colonists first came ashore in 1607 prior to settling at nearby Jamestown, and stop at the Old Cape Henry Lighthouse, built in 1792. Ride down the resort strip, see the historic Cavalier Hotel as well as the Tidewater Veterans Memorial, a unique structure which pays homage to veterans everywhere.

Military Aviation Museum
The Military Aviation Museum is home to one of the largest private collections of World War I and World War II era military aircraft in the world.

The Museum's ongoing mission is to preserve, restore and fly these historic aircraft and to give a new generation the experience to learn what their parents, grandparents and great grandparents might have endured on the lonely airfields and factories, and in the skies so very far from home.
Hear the stories and learn about the contributions of the men and women of military aviation to our country.

The Drifters Concert
Concert by The Drifters with Charlie Thomas. The men in this vocal group are members of The Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame, The Vocal Group Hall of Fame and The Songwriters Hall of Fame; they also have 13 Billboard Hot 100 Hits. Songs such as "Under the Boardwalk," "This Magic Moment," "Save the Last Dance for Me," "Stand by Me," and "Fools Fall in Love."

Elizabeth River Boat Cruise aboard the Spirit of Norfolk

In this casual, yet festive atmosphere, you can dance along to DJ entertainment, listen to live narration, or enjoy interactive games on the skyline deck.

Enjoy a freshly prepared onboard buffet-style lunch.

Beach Boys Boardwalk Dinner Bash
Tonight's big event is our Beach Boys Boardwalk Bash. Once again wear colorful clothes: flip flops, muumuus, floral shirts, sun glasses,
beach hats, get in the mood � enjoy the food � a plated dinner, a healthy meal with seafood and chicken, vegetables and fruit.

This is a themed party, a California blend of dinner and dancing that starts the night right.
After dinner we have a large dance floor with the tribute band "Still Surfin" playing the Best of the Beach Boys.

Whether you dance or just watch, it's a night of great excitations. You'll be feeling those "Good, good, good vibrations" as you listen to such
classics as "California Girls," "Surfer Girl," "Little Deuce Coupe," and "I Get Around."
This is a night of youthful nostalgia,
memories of Beach Movies and Sock Hops.
