In 2017, the median age in Durham, NC was 34.2. There are still many residents waiting to turn the big 3-0.  While every birthday should be a special one, your 30th birthday deserves to be brilliant. Whether you're dreading your journey into a new decade or you're excited about it, you should plan a memorable birthday. Plan one of these five activities and you won't be disappointed.

1. Go on a Road Trip

When most people think of traveling, they think of getting on an airplane and heading somewhere exotic. But you don't need to spend thousands of dollars to travel for your birthday. Instead, you can get in the car and take a small road trip.

Look on a map and pick a destination you've always wanted to visit. It could be two hours or 12 hours away. Once you've selected your destination, start planning the details. Where will you stay when you get there? Who will join you for your birthday road trip? When your birthday weekend arrives, you can get started on your adventure.

2. Take a Cruise

If you're not on a budget, you should consider planning a cruise for your 30th birthday. It's a sophisticated way to celebrate and is guaranteed to make memories. Invite a few friends or family members, or head out on your own. Either way, you're bound to have fun.

One of the best things about a cruise is the flexibility. If you're short on time or money, book a two-night excursion. But you could extend your special day and turn it into a full week's vacation. There are hundreds of different destinations available. Choose one that appeals to you the most and your trip will be even more memorable.

3. Take a Spa Day

You deserve to relax on your 30th birthday, and what better way to relax than head to your local spa. While at the spa, you will be pampered in every way possible. Treat yourself to a facial, full-body massage, and any other activity that piques your interest. If you find it difficult to choose treatments, consider getting a spa day package.

Your day at the spa could also be used to prepare you for an evening of fun. After having a calm day, you might be ready to dance the night away.

4. Attend a Wine-Tasting

No matter where you live, there's a winery nearby. Take a trip to your local winery and try some of their house-made wines. You could find your new favorite blend as you look out over the beautiful scenery.

To add to the fun, treat yourself to a delicious meal. Pair it with the perfect wine to complete the day. Then, you'll be able to ring in the new decade. If you want the best results, hire a designated driver or pay for a rideshare to and from the winery.

5. Go to an Escape Room

If you're not interested in booking an expensive trip or planning a complicated party, you should consider a simpler and more exciting alternative. You can go to an escape room with your favorite people and test your skills.

Escape rooms have grown in popularity over the past few years. During your time in the room, you and your party need to solve puzzles and search for clues. Everyone needs to work towards accomplishing the same goal, which sets you free from the escape room. It's a memorable way to spend your 30th birthday and it's not your typical birthday party.
