Hi Vanessa!
There is no better place in the world to celebrate than Walt Disney World! Congratulations on your 17-year anniversary! Make sure to pick up your complimentary "I'm Celebrating" button from Guest Services when you arrive so everyone will know you are celebrating your anniversary.
How wonderful that you will enjoy not only your anniversary, but running a marathon together! I can't imagine a better way to spend a vacation!
I always love to eat at 'Ohana after running the marathon, especially because of their delicious Hawaiian bread and and bread pudding! They have an all-you-care-to-eat dinner with delicious meats, pot stickers, noodles, broccoli and salad. It's delicious and a fun environment. You can even enjoy a view of Wishes from the beach at Polynesian afterwards.
Another wonderful place to go for dinner is
Narcoossee's at Grand Floridian resort. Their food is wonderful and your can see the Electrical Water Pageant from the porch of the restaurant.
We also love California Grill because of the view of Magic Kingdom. You can see Wishes from above as California Grill is atop of the Contemporary Resort.
I hope you have a wonderful anniversary, a great marathon and a magical vacation!
Magically,
Stacy
