Today is my birthday and it is back to reality. Last night, TechyDad and I flew home from Orlando. We were at the New Fantasyland, Test Track, and Splitsville media event. We spent four magical days at Walt Disney World exploring the new items, learning about future items coming to Disney, and walking miles. We saw old friends, met new ones, and had a wonderful time as a couple wandering around the parks when we had free time.

Friday evening we had reservations to celebrate my birthday dinner at Les Chef de France in Epcot. Dinner was delicious and it brought back the eight years of French that I took in school. Here is a look at my meal.

To start, I had the soupe a l’oignon gratinee. I have to say it may be the best French Onion Soup I have ever had. Next it was filet de saumon, pommes de terre ecrasees au beurre et ciboulette, sur de tomate et poivron rouge (that’s Broiled salmon, Smashed potatoes with butter and chives, served on a tomato and red pepper sauce). The salmon was cooked to perfection and it was fantastic. The meal ended with TechyDad and I sharing dessert (the sorbet was beyond amazing).

Today, we will have a nice evening with the boys catching up on things from the last few days. More on the rest of our Disney adventure coming soon. So much to share about New Fantasyland and beyond.

Disclosure: TechyDad was invited to the New Fantasyland media event December 5-7. Disney paid for his travel, our park tickets, room, along with some extra surprises. I was his guest and invited to special events, but paid for my travel and an extra night at the resort.
