Celebrating My Birthday in Style on Sydney Harbour

Not everyone likes to travel for the holidays. I get that. I love to be home for Christmas
and New Year’s, celebrating with my friends and family. Birthdays, however, are another story. For those occasions, an escape from reality is always very welcome. And for those of you who enjoy getting older, traveling to a far-off spot is a great way to celebrate!

I was lucky enough to celebrate a BIG birthday (not going to mention which one) when I was down in Sydney last August. Just around sundown, my husband and I boarded a 52 foot luxury cruiser along with Shawn and Pip (and their baby Hugh), the owners of Sea Sydney Cruises. Thus began one of the best days of my life aboard “my” private yacht.

As we coasted along the beautiful harbour, Shawn pointed out many of its highlights, including Russell Crowe’s home! He knows so much about the area, including its history and architecture, so one feels he/she is really gaining an insider’s perspective on this iconic waterway.

Following our informative tour, Pip came upstairs with her homemade canapés. Yum! There is no better way to wash these tasty treats down then with some delicious Aussie wines (and they are never in short supply on the yacht).

One of the best parts of the cruise was just being able to chat to Pip and Shawn, who are two of the warmest and friendliest people one will ever meet. The whole experience made me feel as if I was just a local out for a cruise with some close friends to celebrate my special day. I can’t wait to go back and see them again!
You too can enjoy a once in a lifetime private cruise on Sydney Harbour to celebrate
your special day. Just call Down Under Endeavours 888.229.0082!
