Wednesday 3/6/24
Scott went to the gym at 5:30 and I went at 6. Our normal morning routine of laundry, jacuzzi, showers, and breakfast followed.
We weren’t going to a park today. Instead we were meeting with a realtor on the West Coast of Florida. The realtor spent much of the day with us and showed us model homes and ideas on what we can have built. He showed us two master planned lagoon communities. One was a community called Angeline in Land O Lakes. There is still a lot of construction and the lagoon itself isn’t built yet. The other community he showed us was Mirada in San Antonio; still construction going on but the lagoon is already built. He wanted to show us the various amenities of the different communities. We saw a few model homes we liked. The communities were very nice. We’re still trying to figure out if a community is what we’re really looking for since that’s new to us. We have just started our search looking for potential places to move down the road, but these are definitely staying in consideration.
We drove back towards Disney after our day with the realtor. We cancelled our prior dinner reservation since we didn’t know what time we would get back. While driving back we made a reservation for Sebastian’s Bistro for tonight. We made a stop at Publix and dropped the items off at the resort.
We drove over to Caribbean Beach resort a little early. We went to Banana Cabana for pre-dinner cocktails.
Scott had Makers Bourbon and I had a Caribbean Smuggler.
There weren’t any seats at the bar so we took our drinks to a bench near the water and hung out over there. We were standing along the water’s edge and saw a turtle in the water.
We were seated on time at Sebastian’s Bistro. This was our best meal at Sebastian’s Bistro yet. Everything was really good. It’s a pre-fixed meal. The last few times we were here we did the coconut shrimp add on, but skipped it this time knowing how much food there is.
They start you off with pull apart rolls with guava butter and caramelized onion jam. These rolls are good but would be excellent if they were heated up.
The salad is refreshing and we enjoyed it.
The entree is a “Taste of the Caribbean” and includes chicken, pork, beef, and sustainable fish. You can choose a vegetarian platter if you want but we went with the regular one.
It’s also served with a platter of sides including rice & beans, vegetable curry, and grilled seasonal vegetables. I don’t normally like Cilantro (it tastes like soap to me) but these rice & beans are great.
The star of the meal is the Coconut-Pineapple bread pudding. We loved this.
We had a great meal at Sebastian’s. After dinner we walked around Caribbean Beach resort a bit then headed back to Vistana Villages and continued watching Hotel Transylvania 2.
