Hi, David;
Hope you had a good weekend.
This email is to thank you and Ben for providing us a wonderful birthparty experience and performance onboard Rua Moana. I think Ben has done an excellent job. All my guests including those from overseas are very happy and will have an unforgettable memory of the day.
Thanks again.
