That Extra Something

[MattsPrincess]

Db and I will be at the parks for our 1 year anniversary on October 10th & 11th. I've already booked the Illumination Dessert Party on the night of the 11th as a little surprise for him, but would like to do something on the 10th as well as that's our actual anniversary. I have a Crystal Palace reservation for lunch but am starting to re-think it. It's not very romantic, and i'm not much of any eater. Any suggestions on something sweet and special we could do that doesn't involve over feeding ourselves to feel like we aren't wasting money? It doesn't have to be fancy or expensive or anything like that, just not something you'd do every visit.

California Grill Lounge for apps and/or dessert followed by Wishes fireworks on the observation deck or Kona cafe for sushi(or apps) and dessert followed by Wishes fireworks from the Polynesian's Beach?

A Victorian conservatory overlooking Cinderella's castle (Crystal palace) isn't the least romantic place in the world .....but I can understand how the demographics of the patrons might reduce the mood.

Does it have to be in a park? If not, how about a carriage ride at Ft. Wilderness or POR? Or renting a boat from one of the monorail resorts or BC/YC? Either would cost less or about the same as the CP meal and it would just be the two of you.

Since you've already got the dessert party on your second night, maybe keep that the "big" thing? And plan something smaller but special for the first day?

If you're already going to be in MK, I was thinking maybe pick up a Starbucks coffee/drink and a couple yummy cupcakes or pastries from Main Street Bakery, then take them over to Tom Sawyer Island? You might get lucky and find a quiet spot to sit down and enjoy your treats in a little bit of (relative) privacy. At least, as private as a theme park can be!
