Couple celebrating anniversary interrupted by nudist cruise
Updated | By Stacey and J Sbu
A romantic dinner quickly took a completely unexpected turn...
When one imagines a romantic dinner, one might think of flowers, candles, mood music, and an upper-class restaurant with good food.

You get the picture.
And maybe, just maybe, there might be a little bit of sexual tension between you and your partner.

What there hopefully shouldn't be is sexual tension between you, your partner, and anyone else just cruising by.
Or a scenario that is even worse - you and your partner are fully clothed and enjoying dinner but there is a group of naked people in your line of sight.

Now, don't get us wrong, there is nothing wrong with the human body and you should feel free to embrace your body any way you like. Our only suggestion would be to do it in a place where an unsuspecting bystander won't get the shock of their life.
Like one couple who had their anniversary meal interrupted by nudists by the boatload. Literally.

John Wood and his wife were having a lovely dinner at the River Exe Café, a 'floating gastro shed' in Devon, England.
The restaurant does say they specialise in 'dining with a difference', but no one could have prepared them for this.

Just as they tucked into their meals, a nudist cruise pulled up beside them and they were greeted, quite enthusiastically, by a group of naked strangers.
My wife and I were having a lovely Anniversary dinner at the River Exe cafe when we caught sight of a boat full of naked people travelling slowly. Reaction in the restaurant was mostly of amusement, and concern for their health as the wind was getting up. Luckily that was the only thing that was!- John Wood

Apparently, the boat belongs to The Torbay Sun Club, which is a naturist swim and social club.
The club was founded all the way back in 1976 and John and his wife had just happened to be in the right place at the wrong time as the Club's annual Nude Cruise came drifting by.

On their site, they explain why people are interested in naturism:
Often, it's for freedom and the shedding of the pressures of life. For many of us, naturism happens only at home; nudity helps us to unwind - that may sound bizarre but just try it. Taking off clothes has a way of removing social barriers too. You would be surprised how many people you pass by in the street, or in the supermarket, are naturists. Naturists come in all ages, shapes and sizes.- Torbay Sun Club
