Declan:
Sounds like you'll be celebrating a milestone birthday on your trip!
Get your creative juices ready to celebrate and browse Disney's
site to customize your celebration. There, see all Disney has to offer from simply getting your birthday button--which I highly recommend that you wear at all times for optimum pixie dust--to ordering a special cake.
Dining at Disney is typically how my family celebrates. Consider treating yourself to a sunset dinner at
California Grill atop the Contemporary Resort for a spectacular view of the property. Children are welcome. Get there early and request a window table. You can also splurge at nearby
Narcoossee's at the Grand Floridian and take in the Magic Kingdom's Wishes fireworks display. You can leave your table and head to the the restaurant's large veranda to watch the fireworks and listen to the accompanying music.
If you have your heart set on "marking" the occasion, consider getting a hair cut from the
Harmony Barber Shop . I've seen mohawks, temporary hair dyes and even Mickey heads painted on customers! At the very least, it's fun and the whole family can get their hair cut and leave with your hair dusted with confetti to let everyone know you're celebrating. Make reservations at 407-939-7529 if you don't want a wait.
Wishing y'all a magical vacation and memorable birthday!
