PLANS FOR OUR REUNION
Welcoming Sydney harbour dinner cruise on Spirit of Migloo
Wednesday, March 11. A 78-foot luxury cruiser which holds 80 people. Cruise departed from King Street Wharf No. 8, Darling Harbour, located in front of Cargo Bar on the Darling Harbour Promenade.
We enjoyed a magical evening cruising along Sydney Harbour with a picturesque sunset and the breathtaking spectacle of Sydney’s iconic attractions lit up.
The dinner cruise was a thoughtful and regionally focused menu, served over three courses. The chefs created a menu that highlighted the multicultural influences that make Sydney cuisine so special and they used an array of fresh and beautiful New South Wales & Australian ingredients.
The internal main deck was for the exclusive use of our group with access to any of the open air decks.
There was time to reminisce — everyone was invited to talk briefly about themselves and had fun with a 1973 related trivia quiz.
