Nothing fancy or over the top.
Personally I can't stand New Year's so my perfect New Year's eve is one in which I'm in bed by 8pm; although this year we'll have family around so I think the plan is currently to head to Taupo / Picton for a few days by the lake / sea.
I think we would head off somewhere too but we have already planned and booked trips for the time my parents are here and we are definetly at home in auckland over New year
We didnt do anything last year but would really like to make an effort this year
