Plan Your Own Birthday Party — and Go All Out

Instead of having the usual dinner with the lover, spouse, or relatives, why not plan an exhilarating birthday bash that you’ll never forget. Perhaps you are turning thirty and want to fly to London to shop at Harrods and then go to the theater district to see a play. What are you waiting for? Book the reservations. You’re only thirty once. Or, perhaps you’re turning forty and are thinking about doing a vision quest. Get in your jeep and head to the desert. Maybe this is your big five-o year and you’ve always wanted to skydive. Get on down to your local airport and find out what’s involved. Whatever you do, do it your way and enjoy every minute of it.
