Family Adventures

Last Week we went to Legoland in Carlsbad, California.
We liked their fun Amusement Park and their Water Park.

There were a ton of Legos everywhere.
Lots of stuff was made out of Legos.
They had a Star Wars Legoland which was the coolest miniature little land I've ever seen.

There was a river ride which toured the world with miniature landmarks and miniature bays and cities built by the river.

We drove to Oceanside and back.
We stayed in Vegas for one night on the way there, but got there too late at night and just went to bed.
We stayed in Oceanside, next to the beautiful ocean and a fun Lighthouse and Pier.
I tried their Fish and Chips which I thought were not too bad; although I've never been a fan of fish.
We got to play in the ocean which was really cold and the surf was red, the current was fast and twirly-- so we did not swim but just played in the shallow part of the beach.
Christopher had a ball.

Robert took Christopher to the Zoo today and got some really cute pictures of him.
We took him to the Aquarium soon after so I could see the neat new baby sharks that they have now.
I loved seeing the sharks! Black Tip Reef Shark, Normal Reef Shark, Wedge Ray (otherwise known as Guitarfish), Green Sea Turtle, and Stingrays. I loved seeing the Caymans which look like miniature crocadiles. And taking pictures with Peaches, the mellow Anaconda who is 4 Feet long. We also saw the penguins swim and watched the cute River Otters stretch and yawn while they were all napping. They are so adorable.
