DaY 2, oPerATion Legoland

 

We were a bit down on LEGOLAND.

I know some people love this place, it’s just that to us, it seemed overpriced and overpopulated.  And not being Disneyland, it did not handle the crowds well. 

Therefore, we spent over an hour waiting in line for rides that felt like cheap knockoffs of the rides at Lagoon.

It was also the coldest day of our trip, and the day that E began acting sick.  Again.  His nose was disgusting!

 

There were some redeeming characteristics of this place that were relatively cool, however.

For instance, we spent over an hour viewing all the mini lands formed out of Legos, with too many cool features to even begin to photograph.  Pictures just wouldn’t have done it justice.

It was just dang amazing!

But my little boy wanted try his hand at photography, so I handed my phone over to him.

He actually came out with a few good ones of one particular area; I believe it was a replica of New York.

These pictures aren’t even the tip of the iceberg of how impressive all the lands were.

Many of them even had moveable parts.

And as you can see, though we had wrapped up Christmas as a family before we left, we were surrounded by the ongoing holiday celebrations, both in Disneyland and again at LEGOLAND.

We decided to embrace it and relished in enjoying the season just a little longer, even though I am generally the –take-tree-down-Christmas-night-  type.

Right by this Christmas tree was a little land where they had created a fake winter wonderland for kids to play in, complete with fake snow.

We sat back and observed as kids who probably rarely saw snow sledded up and down fake slopes.

We felt we get our fair share of that stuff at home, and possessed no desire to partake of this activity.

But good for those who did!

On the way home we picked ourselves up a feast from Pizza Hut and enjoyed it at the hotel.
