    Booked our flight last night -- 188 days to go! Trying to plan an adult night out since both sons are now old enough for Kids' clubs. Do any of you romantics have some suggestions? Best restaurant or experiences sans kiddos? LOVE THIS PANEL!

    Hi, Laura!  For the past several years, my husband and I have celebrated our anniversary at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge.  We book a dinner at the wonderful Jiko restaurant, but we usually head over there a little bit early.  We'll venture out to the savanna before dinner and watch some of the animals or maybe listen to the African storytellers.  After a wonderful dinner at Jiko, we often enjoy a night cap at the Sunset Lounge, where you can enjoy the music of the savanna.  It's just a lovely place, and we've always enjoyed a fabulous meal.

    Another great place is the California Grill.  If your timing is right, you might be able to enjoy the Wishes Fireworks from the restaurant.  You'll typically find mostly adults here, although children are welcome. 

    You might also enjoy Artist Point at the Wilderness Lodge.  The Lodge itself is just beautiful, and we like to just walk around the beautiful grounds.  After enjoying dinner at this signature dining restaurant, you could sit in the lobby by the fireplace and enjoy rocking in the chairs, holding hands and talking.

    My husband and I have also done the Spirit of Aloha dinner show without our girls.  I love walking around the lush tropical paradise that is the Polynesian Resort, and the show itself is very entertaining. 

    Have a wonderful date night, and a terrific vacation!
