More Legoland

In Legoland, there were a lot of water activities. This one we saw instruments in the water and if someone stepped on the circle corresponding with an instrument, that instrument would make beautiful music. If people were stepping on every single circle, we could hear all the instruments making harmony in the song.

There were water guns to aim at the Lego animals.

Logan loved trying to squirt the frogs on the lily pads.

Glen and Claire got in on some water squirting action.

There were numerous playgrounds all throughout the park. This part had several fun areas for the kids to play and it also had a little train you could ride.

Those Lego cornstalks remind me of the corn field behind Jacob and Laurie's house in Omaha.

The Fairy Tale Brook ride was a good one.

We got in our boats and floated along and saw various fairy tales being acted out.

Where is the family wearing those cute matching t-shirts going now?

The roller coaster!

You can see the tracks of the roller coaster behind the giraffes when we went on safari where we saw lots of interesting animals.

The park was colorful and beautifully landscaped and had a lot of things to constantly look at.

Like Disneyland, Legoland was also decorated up for Halloween. Look at the size of this jack-o-lantern.

What colorful dinosaurs we spotted in the bushes.

Our last ride of the day was a cruise.

We saw lots of interesting things along the way.

Watch out for that dinosaur!

We cruised by the city of New York. Can you see the Statue of Liberty on the left?

We cruised by the Eiffel Tower--all made out of Legos.

Another Lego creation--Mount Rushmore.

Abe and Klarissa, do you recognize the Golden Gate Bridge?

We made a brief stop in the miniature town section of Legoland on our walk out of the park. It was amazing how they made real-life cities and towns scaled down to Lego-size and how detailed they were. Natalie, Emma and Luke are standing in front of a farming community.

The children had to stop in at the witch's house to make some brew before moving on to the next city.

There was a Lego display of the whole Las Vegas strip. It was amazing!

Then it was on to New York.

I loved the outdoor symphony with lots of little Lego people.

The kids loved the swimming pool with all the Lego people wearing their swimming suits.

There were other cities we didn't get to see--like Washington, D.C.--but it was well past closing time and we had to leave. I guess I'll have to see it the next time we go to Legoland.

We had to stop for a pose by the pumpkin and the ghost on our way out.

Back at the house, we ate dinner.

After dinner, Glen made popcorn for the grandchildren.

Once all the children were in bed, this is a look at how the men chose to spend the rest of their evening.

Meanwhile, over at the dining room table, the women were busy looking at the park maps and program schedules and making their plans as to how best they could make use of their last day at Disneyland.

Good night. Sleep tight.

Rest well. Only one last day at the theme parks.
