There was a countdown to his birthday at midnight, as if we were all anticipating the new year. Which I suppose we were, but not all of ours, just his :) He was then serenaded with "Happy Birthday to You" in 5 different languages.
Followed by the Germans who hoisted him in a chair and sang some sort of birthday chant while tossing Nicholas a la the Hora in a Jewish wedding.
He received many thoughtful gifts including a bouquet of flowers from the park near IMD, a belt decorated with the swiss flag multiple times and adorned with a belt buckle with the swiss flag, cigars, a ice cream cake in the shape of a champagne bottle, Johnny Walker Red, the list goes on...
The best gift, though, was certainly the company that we shared. The night was filled with so much fun and laughter, I think that the students escaped from their reality for just one night and forgot that they still have one more exam to go tomorrow. It was truly a magical evening and entrance into his birthday, I just know this year is going to continue to have many more wonderful surprises for him.
I just had a brilliant time reading about this birthday eve terrace party. Everything was so fun in this bash and yeah all of the arrangements are done with loads of creativities. For our sister’s sweet 16th birthday we also will host the rooftop party in next week and have already booked one of her favorite NYC venues.
