¶I absolutely love waking up to sunshine spreading across the open water. What a beautiful sight and a wonderful feeling - nature, expanse, warmth. I love everything this sight brings me.

¶Here’s the view from the veranda this morning. Open water, cool breeze, and warm sunshine.

¶Renee and I enjoyed a wonderful, multi-course dinner at Remy onboard the Disney Fantasy tonight. Our waiter suggested that Renee order the French tasting and that I order the American, and that we then share each course. He essentially gave us permission to do what we were wondering but might have been afraid to ask, which was a really welcoming way to start the meal.
¶Turns out, pretty much everything from both menus was fantastic. I think we both like the toothfish the best, followed by the Wagyu beef and then, for me, the beet dish. Truly an incredible meal and amazing service.

¶Our waiter knew we were celebrating our anniversary, and asked if we wanted to celebrate in the restaurant (assuring us it would not involve a group of waiters clapping and singing at our table!). At the end of our meal, he brought our “surprise” - a celebration cake in a mirrored egg. The presentation was a bit odd when compared to the amazing presentation of everything else, but the cake was fantastic. We enjoyed it a bit later, as our second dessert.

¶We ended up having three dessert courses because of the anniversary cake. This course included another cake (presented in the smaller egg pictured here), some chocolates, and apricot rolls. They surprised me a bit, and I think I liked them the best.
¶We couldn’t finish this round. So much food!
¶The maǐtre ď brought Renee a rose (fibbing a bit, saying it was from me), and we left after enjoying one of the best meals we’ve ever had.

¶We’re quickly getting comfortable with the Concierge Lounge! No lines, great selection, and wonderful people. We enjoyed a nice breakfast before heading to the spa for a couples massage.
