Describe this place. What details made is such a unique experience?
I was down for New Years Eve. There is nowehere like Sydney Harbour. Instead of getting squashed with the rest of the crowds i went on a gorgeous Glass boat called Bella Vista. The boat was in between the harbour bridge adn the opera house. The view was magnificent but the best was easily not having to line up and being away from the crowds. Haveing the fireworks synchronised with music (which apparently happens every year) was another great experience. Good food, plenty of drink, great entertainment, the best boat i have seen (let alone been on), and awesome fireworks on a fantastic Harbour. What better way to bring in the new year.
How have pictures or videos from it helped you remember it? Do you keep a picture on your desk or in your bedroom?
I have a slide show flashing on my home computer of the Sydney sites and that awesome night
Will you go back there again, or is the memory too perfect to risk tarnishing it by a second visit with unrealistic expectations?
Will definitely head back... especially if i can get a group of people together for it
How have you told people about it, and how have you encouraged people to go there themselves?
Yes definitely. We are already trying to get a group of about 15 of us on there.
Who were you with when you had this experience, and did they share in seeing it as an unforgettable moment?
I was with two friends and a cousin that all live in Sydney. They haven''t been out on the boat for a New years Eve before and they thought the same as me. Apparently they normally try to view them from the foreshare, but give up because of the crowds and head home after the 9:00pm show. They've already thrown a deposit down for this year.
What will you do in the future to try to top this experience?
Not sure yet. I think it's know worldwide Sydney has the best fireworks display with the most spectacular backdrop. I saw the boats on the harbour and know the Bella Vista was definitely the best to be on.Best view of the Best New Years Eve fireworks display on the Best Boat... how can you top that
