July 12 – Legoland

To get to Legoland from the hotel required climbing a set of stairs and crossing the road overpass…quick commute.

First thing we did was get into a line to get Liam a reservation for the “Traffic School”.  Then we started wandering the park.  

We spent quite a a bit of time in line for the Laser Maze (entry was Asia/Dragon themed).  While in line there was a large area with tons of LEGOS and a dragon.  This gave the kids a chance to kill time playing with the LEGOs.  Liam did his fair share of affixing LEGOs to the dragon.

Eventually we made it into the Laser Maze.  A bit of contortionism required.

While waiting in line for lunch we got to see Mount Rushmore and a statue of a native American Indian. 

Liam got a burger for lunch that had LEGO shaped fries.

About lunch time Liam’s time slot for the Traffic School came up so he and Paul headed over for the ride while Mary kept our place at the table.  The food arrived shortly after they left (was a bit cold when they finally made it back).

Traffic School.

Mary and Liam also rode the roller coaster.  It wasn’t too hair raising…just fast enough to be fun and not too scary.  We were in the last car.

We all spent a fair amount of time enjoying the miniature city.  There were many European scenes

and some of the world’s tallest buildings. 

This scene was of Nyhvan Street, where we had spent time while in Copenhagen.  They did a very nice job of reconstructing the street.
