Kris Brown's 7th Annual 70th Birthday Cruise​

Key West and The Bahamas (Celebration Key and Nassau)
7 night adventure aboard The Carnival Dream
Saturday, November 7, 2026 through Saturday, November 14, 2026

Men are invited! (No kids, please)
Hosted by Anita Gunton and April Proffitt

Don’t miss the chance to cruise into paradise and celebrate with us – Key West, Celebration Key and Nassau await! 
Plus, you can enjoy a few days at sea where we can just sit by the pool, relax and play games
First stop: Key West! Stroll streets where chickens roam freely, sip frozen drinks, and marvel at postcard-perfect sunsets and 6 toed cats (Google it 😎)
Second stop: Celebration Key - a new private island destination from Carnival, nestled on the south side of Grand Bahama island, that's designed exclusively for Carnival guests. It’s perfect for adults, families with kids… everybody who appreciates fun and natural beauty. Get ready for unforgettable experiences like a mile-long white sand beach, the largest freshwater lagoons in the Caribbean and five “portals” for you to enjoy. 
Final stop: Nassau! Explore beaches, shopping, history, and a touch of island mischief. Ready for duty-free treasures and a rum punch or two?
