San Diego 2010-Day 6

LEGOLAND!!!

This was the day the boys had been waiting for since we started planning this trip. To be honest, I was a little nervous. After Sea World, I was not at all sure our family could handle Legoland. But, we had learned a few lessons, and had relaxed a bit since then. So, off we went, our best attitudes in mind, and our pockets full of cash.

It was, by far, the best day of our vacation!!!



Ice cream first, of course.

The best part of Legoland was that there were lots of things for the older boys and the Little One.

The Little One's first ride... ever. He was a little nervous, but once it started moving, he loved it!!!

Land of Adventure
(This was an Indiana Jones ride.)

Dune Raiders
(A giant slide. The two middle ones are ours.)

Castle Hill

The Little One wanted to be locked up, too.

I ate apple fries (deep fried granny smith apple slices with whipped vanilla cream dip) while the boys played mini-golf.


"Get me outta here!"
(Waiting for golfers to finish 18 holes was hard.)

Pirate Shores
(They were trying to get their Dad wet.)

Fun Town
(They got a driver's license with their picture on it after this. Cool!)


Building with Duplo in Explore Village

A slide for the Little One

More building (Bionicles) in Imagination Zone

A quick stroll through Miniland USA before hitting the gift shop.

The boys all had Christmas money that they saved to spend in Legoland. We waited until the end to shop, which was a mistake. The place was a zoo, and the shopping experience with two hyper-excited boys and a stroller was intense, to say the least. But they were all happy with what they got, and we needed to buy an extra piece of luggage to bring it all home. Success!

Another beautiful sunset on the way home.

Legoland looks a child's fantasy world! I love that you had to buy extra luggage...

One thing I've noticed about vacation posts, is that we all seem to include photos of the sunset. I wonder why it's so different to appreciate the sunset at home? I know I appreciate it way more when I'm on holiday somewhere...

Wow! I wanna go to Legoland!! Didn't realize there would be that much to do there. I can totally see how it would be fun for boys, big and small.

Legoland looks like some serious fun. I'm quite sure San Diego will be on my list of places to visit in the near future....
