Legoland - October 2011


For our last day in California, we decided we wanted to go to one of the other theme parks. Since Isaac lives and breathes Legos, we decided to go to Legoland this time. :) It was a fun place to visit! The whole park was full of things made from Legos. The only problem was that the park was only open from 10:00 to 5:00 and it just was NOT enough time to see the entire park. :( Unfortunately, by the time they closed we hadn't had time to make it through all of the attractions and rides. Too bad because I think some of the more fun rides were on the side we didn't make it to. We still had a lot of fun though.




Isaac and Parker, Josh and Bryce on a safari ride:

Dinosaur roller coaster:
Bryce with Bob the Builder:

I had to take a picture of this baby vending machine. LOL Kinda
cool to be able to buy a binky if you lose it. :)

Lego Indiana Jones!

And Lego Harry Potter and Hagrid!

Oh no! The lion ate the boys!

Don't these rocks remind you of the Gnomes on "Return to Oz"?
Airplane ride:




Pirate ship ride:

Log ride:


Parker & Isaac with Lego Chewbaca and R2D2:

They had lots of awesome Star Wars displays:




Yay for Ewoks! :)

The boys were excited to pose by Lego Darth Vader!
One of our favorite parts of the whole park were all of the elaborate displays made of Legos. We could have spent a ton more time than we did walking through and looking at all of them. They were so detailed!

Lego Capitol Building:

Look! It's LegObama! :)


Lego Trick or Treaters:


A little Lego fountain:

Lego Mardi Gras:
The kids LOVED the Lego Las Vegas, especially since
we had just been there:







There was even a little Lego pumpkin patch!

Cool! Lego Buffy the Vampire Slayer! :)



The Lego witches were cool:
Lego lighthouse:

Lego New York City:

The kids got to meet Bob the Builder:


The Lego dragon was cool!



This was the cutest ride:


I think Josh was a little disappointed with Legoland because there weren't many "FUN" rides since it is mostly for little kids. He finally found a ride that he liked though:







The kids had too much fun in the souvenir shop at the end! They got some little Lego kits and we got a Lego game. They had fun playing with them when we got back to our hotel. It was a fun day! :)

Looks like you had about the exact same day as us. We didn't end up being able to do all the fun ride, we didn't even know were on the other end of the park. It's too bad it didn't stay open a little longer huh? Erin and my 12 yr old son did level 5 on the upside down claw ride...LOL...he said his head hurt for th rest of the day after that. Looks like you guys had a great time though:)

I know, I almost wished we would have started on the other side and worked our way back because it did seem the more fun rides were on that side. It was fun though. I bet his head hurt after that ride! I can't handle those kinds of rides, but Josh loves them. LOL
