Donnie Wahlberg's party cruise

The star and his bandmates Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight,Joey McIntyre and Danny Wood will embark on a cruise in June, travelling from New York City to Bermuda. It's a chance for the group to perform for their fans and enjoy a fun holiday.
"New York is great, it's an international city the same as Miami, but a lot of our fans who come on the cruise are from the UK and Europe and we felt like starting it there would be a good thing," he explained to the British edition of OK! magazine when asked why the cruise is starting in the Big Apple rather than Miami this year.
"We have so much fun, you've really got to go on the cruise - it's a non-stop party. We'd love to do a Mediterranean cruise. I've never been to the Med - it's somewhere I'm very interested in exploring."

"Yes, most specifically coming to the UK," he answered when asked if he's looking forward to it. "I go to Europe to work, I never get to go to Europe to play, so one day I look forward to doing that. I did some sightseeing when I was working on Band of Brothers - a lot of the guys would take off and go to Italy or Capri, but I stayed in Italy and rode around on my bicycle."

Wahlburgers, a fast casual burger restaurant founded by brothers Mark, Donnie, and Paul Wahlberg and subject of a new A&E Network's original series, "Wahlburgers", announced expansion plans in North America, including new developments in Boston, Toronto and Philadelphia.

In addition, Wahlburgers is finalizing leases for two new restaurants in the metro and suburban Boston area. These include sites within Samuels and Associates' Fenway neighborhood development in Boston and in WS Development's Market Street Center in Lynnfield. Both restaurants are planned to be over 4200 square feet with sizable outdoor patios and offer all the signature characteristics of the original Hingham location, including full-serve and self-serve dining options, take-out, and a full bar.
