It was raining lightly the whole drive over. We just kept our fingers crossed that it would let up. But while standing in the parking lot and trying to find/get our stroller out it started to pour. It was a little crazy and I may have said the words, "everyone get back in the car we are leaving." Tears started falling quicker than the rain. So here we are - LEGOLAND!!
Taking shelter under the natural umbrella
and in the Lego shop. Nope, not candy, I checked. While we pored over the map strategizing our every move for the day.
Just so happens they just opened their new Star Wars land
Fortunately the rain stopped before we got on our first ride. And if you stood in the sun long enough you got dry and very warm!! Legoland miracle.
I know it looks like we are having a blast. And we were. But I have to be honest. This place really does suck unless you have kids. There - it's out. Now don't say I never told you so.
Prepare yourself - Star Wars Legos
The pictures just don't do it justice. Those little guys move and play music. Far more entertaining than those rides.
And my favorite, the Ewoks. I know, true Star Wars fans are not fans of these little furry critters, but cut me some slack. As a young girl my sisters and I would watch this video over and over again loving the glimpse of the little baby Ewok. Plus you got to love where they live and those little buck teeth. And since we are being honest, sometimes I use their words. Anyone else say garoonduh?
Hanging out in Miniland. Again, much better than the rides.
the line up in line
Orion posed with every single Lego statue
And wanted a photo with each one
Happy kids and sunshine is pure bliss
making them sweeter
We were not leaving without trying the granny apple fries
Didn't take long for this to happen
We were ever so lucky to meet up with Uncle Mikie for dinner, at the Yard House in downtown LA!!!
Mikie surprised Bell by letting the waiter know it was her birthday
I love how she is looking at Mikie. She and the rest of the kids completely go gaga over him.
