For me there is always the debate each New Year's Eve if I want to stay in for a more quiet night or go out to a party. This year David and I decided to go out (since he was working last NYE) and see how the OC Fair's Block Party would turn out. We had an awesome time and I'm so glad we did this! Here are my thoughts on the event:
*They cater to all ages. In each of the buildings they had a 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and millenium stages. There were different cover bands that were pretty good... well except for the one playing Journey music. The Beatles and U2 bands were pretty good.
*Gourmet food trucks were in full force. Nouka, a Greek food truck, had one of the best chicken kabobs with tzatziki sauce. Two thumbs up! The Shrimp Pimp truck was just ok. Their batter was more like funnel cake batter than tempura batter.
*Don't buy your tickets on Ticketmaster. If they do this event again next year (which I hope they will), check out some of the discount sites like Travelzoo to save yourself some money.
What have you done in the past to ring in the new year? What would you recommend or advise to avoid? A penny for your thoughts?
