Okay, I've gone back to mostly lurking, buy oh my word - the GLEE on your son's face with those foam balls and the shooters!! So much fun and worth the price of admission right there, I'm sure!!
I've heard California Legoland is "better" than Florida Legoland and I don't know whether or not that's true, but you certainly look to be having an amazing time!!
It was totally worth it to see him enjoy himself so much on pretty much every single attraction!
I don't have anything to compare it to, but that could make sense since Florida's Legoland is newer and may not have as many attractions in its arsenal yet. There was a whole section of Legoland we skipped because it was all water based and it was pretty chilly outside. It's a huge park!
That cinnamon apple snack looks amazing!!! I'd be all over those too!
I think this might be the first time I've ever seen a complaint about not having to wait in a line.
Awesome! I'm glad you had a good meal there and the service was good too. I guess you have to expect expensive at a theme park buffet, but at least they tried to make it worthwhile!
Sounds like a fun ride. And apparently LEGOLAND is just trying to be extra careful and assume no liability for anything.
I might have heard about this one... I think it sounds like a lot of fun, even if it is just a short trip. I just hope the car ride goes well.
Oh man, they were sooooooo good. I could probably be convinced to go back to Legoland in the future just for another order of those things!
Ha! That's true. I just wished I could have gone on more with DS had I known it wouldn't be a big deal or present a problem for my pregnancy. Some of the rides that had warnings were real head scratchers as to why. Most seemed pretty tame.
They must be super worried about covering their butts because almost every single ride seemed to have a warning!
DH mentioned that he posted about it in the DIS Dads. lol I'm equal parts worried/terrified about the drive and the insane Thanksgiving crowds. But I truly think there is just no way we will regret seeing the lights one last time. I'm sure we would regret it if we didn't do this!
Looks like a fun time at Legoland, especially for DS. Lots of playgrounds (and slides) too! And I really would like to eat those apples now, please.
Yay for a repeat trip! I mean, you gotta get a picture of the baby with the lights, right? Who cares if you just came back and are going again in a few months?
I hope you have a great time!
He was truly the perfect age for it, both in the attractions and the play areas. It was pretty much his version of heaven on earth! Oh man, you and me both. I have been majorly craving sweets lately and some of those apple fries would sure do the trick! And it's apples, so it's healthy, right?
Even if she will never remember it, she just HAS to see the lights at least once in her life! And we will have the pics to prove it!
WOW - LEGOLAND looks like it was a real hit!! It's a place I've been thinking about doing (though as you said, hard to find time for even on our longer trips to Orlando) but great for CA. I think it is silly they don't offer longer DL tickets. Anyway...looks like there were really a ton of rides for Paxton and what boy doesn't love legos?! (Aria likes them too BTW!). We have an indoor
Lego place near Boston that I've been meaning to take her to. There's only 2 rides though so definitely not anywhere near LEGOLAND standards haha.
ANyway glad to see how happy Paxton was!! I guess they only give pregnancy warnings vs. requirements? Interesting since DLP was very strict with their pregnancy "warnings" = pregnant people MAY NOT ride.
It was definitely perfect to do for our "extra" day and DS was definitely part of their target audience. I don't get the
Disneyland ticketing either.
Five seems like a low number when most people take vacation for a week. Paxton was just really starting to get into Legos (like the kits) prior to this trip and now since visiting Legoland he loves them even more. If Aria loves them, she would definitely enjoy Legoland if you ever find yourself looking to spend a day there.
Yeah, I guess it was just warnings. No one was really paying attention or saying anything about it. I didn't realize that about DLP since it didn't apply to me when we were there. Did they give you trouble when you were there??
But I did do things like carry Aria onto the rides, stick right behind Andrew, etc, because 85% of their rides are not meant for pregnant people which is absolutely ridiculous in 84% of the rides lol.
Despite being the most stressful 3.5 years of my life, I also had some of the best times with some amazing people!
