Arriving in Branson we check in for the next 3 nights.

Everyone loves their incredible harmonies throughout the year, but the sounds are extra fabulous at Christmastime! Tonight we have dinner at the Pickin’ Porch Grill followed by the Presley’s Country Jubilee Evening Show, the first show to open on 76 Country Boulevard! After 40 years, the tradition continues with all our country Christmas favorites, southern gospel and comedy.

Breakfast is yours to enjoy at the hotel, then we attend Branson’s 91st annual Veterans Day Parade as they march through Historic Downtown Branson on the 11th hour, of the eleventh day of the 11th month, that’s November 11, 2023 at 11AM. Once known as “Armistice” Day, it is now “Veterans Day” to honor all of America’s Veterans who served our country. Have lunch on your own in downtown Branson, then later this afternoon we’ll enjoy a cruise on the Showboat Branson Belle where we are privileged to enjoy R&J Exclusive prime Captain’s Row Seating as well as the Captain’s Club Dinner! Our Captain’s seats are perfect for capturing the fabulous show. Tonight we’re guests at the beautiful Sight & Sound Theatre for “Queen Esther.” Set in the opulent yet perilous Persian Empire, it is a captivating tale of beauty and bravery. Esther’s ordinary life changed forever when she was taken through the palace doors, entering a new world of royalty and risk. With a crown on her head and a secret in her heart, can she find the courage to trust in God’s plan and believe that she was made for such a time as this?
