Californian Invasion: Day Two

Two days ago it was the BIG DAY. We went to Legoland that day. At the front, it looks like it has giant Lego bricks at the entrance. We decided to go to Dino Island first. We got there and one of the rides that was supposed to be fun, called Coastersaurus, was closed! Then we decided to go on the fossil dig, but water with sand and little boys is not a good combination!

Luckily for us, right by us was the fairy tale brook. We waited for about fifteen minutes then we got on the boat. We went through different fairy tales made out of Legos, like Little Red Riding Hood, Three Billy Goats Gruff, etc.

The wolf was underwater for the three little pigs. He was wearing a diving suit! At the end, you see Little Red Riding Hood and the wolf dancing! After that the ride is over.

Here is me with Chewbacca.

We went to a ventriloquist's show. I got picked to be a helper!

Notice anything different about these drawings?

Here I am on the train ride with Matthew.

Here I am on the Kid Power Tower with Mom.

Look at me on the helicopter ride!

After that I decided to go on the Volvo driving school ride. You get to ride in real miniature cars! I did really well, but one guy rear-ended me! Everybody got a driving license who did it. There was also a boat driving school, but I didn't go on that. After that we were getting a little hungry so we decided to have lunch at the restaurants nearby. Once I was done we went to Fun Town and decided to go on the Factory Tour. (It wasn't a real factory.)

We decided to go to Miniland USA, which was really cool, too. At the harbors they had boats moving, and at one place you could even drive the boats! At New York, of course there was the Statue of Liberty, the Freedom Tower, the Central Grand Station, the Empire State Building, and the Chrysler Building, and even more!

There was one spot where this space shuttle was ready for launch! And close to the place where the space shuttle was ready for launch there was Daytona Raceway.

And at one little spot these guys were dumping Gatorade on a guy at a baseball game. (This was all made out of Legos.)

After that we went to Knights Kingdom. Once we got in there we saw a little play place and me and Matthew went to play in it a few minutes. After that, we went to MY FIRST ROLLER COASTER! It was a ride that starts off slow then gets fast. In the slow part we went through different rooms with different things happening. There was this kitchen maid in one room that was scolding another person and in another room a dragon was guarding some treasure. There were even Lego bats! After that you went up a hill and down really fast. After that there were some turns and then the ride was over. Then we went on the Knights Tournament, which is a ride where you pull down the part of the seats above your heads. It locks in place, and you're off. It was a robotic arm that you were on and if you went on some of the major levels of intensity, you would go upside down! It was a two-seater for every robotic arm. Then Matthew wanted to go on this horse ride, and that took a little while, but after he was done we went to the wildest roller coaster that I've been on so far, the Technic. You go up through these little stages, then you go down a hill REALLY FAST. It feels like you're going to be thrown off. Then you went up and went on a few turns and then the ride was done. That was in Imagination Zone. Then we went on a ride where you're in one little capsule and you get spun around. (Poor Matthew, he didn't get to go on any of these rides except the dragon one.) Luckily, after that we found a ride Matthew could go on. It was this boat ride. You were in a little boat and you got spun around. The people at one side of the water that the boat was in were pushing buttons so different little water geysers were shooting out. Then we went on a boat tour around Miniland USA, and we got to see some of the things that we weren't able to see.

Next we decided to take a look at the Mindstorms center, and after we looked at the Mindstorms center Matthew wanted to go on another ride that we had tried to go on but we had to wait too long. While Matthew was going on that ride we decided to go in this building where you could make cars and test them on tracks. I really liked doing that. Here's a photo of my car:

Then Matthew came back and we went to this big shop. I bought a Lego Star Wars ARC-10 starfighter. We went outside the shop and there was the Lego Darth Vader and R2. On this stand was a blue light saber and Darth Vader was holding a red, so you could hold the light saber and pretend to be battling Darth Vader. Here's a picture of me doing that:

Here's a picture of me outside Legoland:

We went to Chilis to have dinner after we went to Legoland and then we went to the hotel. Once we got to the hotel I started building my fighter. Then I had to go to bed. What a nice day!
