So what you doing for New Years Eve??

Yes, it is that time of year again when everyone frantically sms's, emails and tweets their friends or random people to find out "so, what are your plans for New Years Eve?"

I have a theory...if you haven't planned or booked your evening in advance there are only a few options left to choose from which usually range from a braai at a mates place, a braai at a mate of a mate or one of the few nightclubs in Durban. Yes there are other functions but not everyone can afford R1000 a couple for a night out.

Now as tempting as those options sound to me, quite frankly, this year I am utterly exhausted and am rather excited about our plans for New Years Eve.

Today after a beach braai with good mates, Ryan and I decided to pop into the Blue Waters Hotel for a cup of coffee on the balcony. And then it hit us...amazing view, reasonably priced good foood, our favourite hotel in Durban and open on New Year's Eve...we have booked a table at The Blue Waters hotel.
Just the two of us for dinner, champagne at midnight and sea views. Done, dusted and booked.
And I am rather excited to get dressed up, go on a date and say goodbye to 2011 and hello to 2012 with my best friend, at our best place in Durban and not break the bank balance.

I will be sure to post on New Years Day with details of the evening.

Have a wonderful but safe New years and final day of 2011.
See you all on the other side.
