South Bay Accent - DecJan 2016

88 South Bay Accent TK TK TK TK TK TK TK TK TK TK TK TK LIGHT MY FIREWORKS WHAT: Dancing and Fireworks! (uss-hornet.org) WHERE: USS Hornet aircraft carrier, Alameda WHY: Kaboom! New Year’s Eve is not complete without watching live fireworks, so why not combine the visuals with some physical fun? Buy tickets from $55 to $95 online or on board. As you admire this huge carrier, view the San Francisco fireworks across the bay as you dance under the stars and explosive bouquets of light. The party ignites at 7:30 p.m., and swing dance lovers will be strutting to live music from the Swingin’ Blue Stars and 3 O’Clock. A former Fred Astaire dance instructor will offer complimentary dance lessons on the spacious hangar deck. Do note that the dress is cocktail or vintage-style wear, so don your spiffiest poodle skirt or zoot suit. The aircraft carrier is stationary, and guests will be able to browse among actual historic airplanes. Across the bay, cruises this night include the fourth annual Moonlight New Year’s Eve Fireworks Party Cruise aboard the San Francisco Spirit (newyearscruise. com) for $179, and the Hornblower Premier New Year’s Eve Dinner Cruise (hornblower.com), which will offer a four-course gourmet dinner, music and dancing, and a keepsake photo for $289. Cheers!
