Legoland 2008: Part 2

Yeah – I am finally at the last of the December pictures! Now for the excuse... Andy gave me Aperture, a photo editing program, for my birthday. It has been a lot of fun to make sure that I get everything set-up and running correctly... And so I don’t think I edited any photos for about 2 weeks! Now, hopefully, I will be able to catch up and get back into March quickly.

On New Year’s Eve we took the free passes that we had picked up at Legoland after Christmas, and headed back. Daja gave her free pass to Liel because they were headed back to Arizona, so Liel joined us. It was a lot of fun the second time around... The first time we were there with a lot of people that had been there many times. This time we got to explore a bit.

Everyone went on the dinosaur rollercoaster, (which I believe Chad said was the “shortest roller coaster on Earth”,) except for me. It was Charlie’s first rollercoaster, and he really liked it! We had fun playing in front of a fountain where you could jump on colored spots on the ground to make music play. We watched the most corny show I think I have ever seen about time travel and Egypt... Where Cleopatra was a valley girl... It was so corny that it was hilarious! After doing a few other things we headed to a restaurant and had yummy pizza for dinner. Then Andy graciously went to go get all our coats from the car, it was much colder than anticipated. Liel and Lynnae hit the log ride, in my opinion... It was a bit to cold to get wet! Then we headed to the New Year’s Eve block party. They had miniland all done up for it, with their own “Times Square” where the ball dropped at 6pm, followed by fireworks. They were handing out party favors for everyone too... It was a lot of fun. Then we hit a few more rides until the park closed, and headed back to Grandma and Grandpa Hayman’s in Vista. I would definitely go to Legoland on New Year’s Eve again!

At my grandparents we hung out until midnight and ate some party food and punch that my grandma set out All in all it was a nice New Year’s Eve... We took care of the celebrating early and then eased through the night until midnight.
