Legoland & Universal

Written by: Kylie

I am writing the first half of this blog & Chris is taking the 2nd half.

On our first day of spring break Chris and I decided to each take a girl to a different park in Florida.  Ali and I went to Legoland.

It wasn't crowed despite it being spring break weekend.  I let Ali dictate the day. Everything was perfect for her size wise and the type of rides that were available.     

I read a few blogs that suggested going to the back of park and working our way to the front was the best strategy.  

First stop was driving school.  Ali earned her licensed even though during the "test" she ran all those STOP signs.  She really liked racing around.

Next stop was the fire academy ride & then she drove a boat.

Ninjago word was really fun and Legoland had all their ninja training open.

Ali loved the shows.  Her favorite was the water stunt show.

Ali asked me to take a picture of this plant for Mimi.

Ali and I walked onto every ride.  We got on The Dragon ride and then realized it was rollercoaster a little late.  Ali rode her first roller coaster on accident.  She was really proud of herself but didn't want to do it again.

She used some of the money she saved to buy 2 swords (one for Bear she said) and 1 shield. She wanted them because she slayed the Dragon ride.

We rode every ride and saw every show before close.  I enjoyed the day with Ali.  She was so fun to hangout with.

I got to spend the day at Universal Studios with just Caroline.  The day started early and we closed the place down.  It was so much fun!  Caroline is so adventurous will ride anything she is tall enough to ride.  I was given explicit instructions from Kylie to take a lot of photos.  

We were sporting out Jurassic Park shirts and we rode the Jurassic Park water ride 4 times.

We decided to ride Popeyes River Ride...and it was a huge mistake for dad.  We were SOAKED! SOAKED!  I can't emphasize this enough. Completely soaked.  Thank goodness Caroline knew about some "heaters" that they had there.  It was like a photo booth that blew hot air to dry you off.  It was nice to help dry off some, but the rest of the day my shoes squeaked.   While dad thought it was the low point of the day, Caroline wanted to ride it again and again.  It was my one veto of the day!

We were about to go back to the house for a few hours to rest and then Caroline spotted Dr. Seuss land and we knocked all the rides out there and decided to just stay the rest of the day.

We rode every Harry Potter ride they had and some a few times.  They are so incredible and anyone would enjoy them regardless if you like HP or not.  Caroline loved every minute of it.

The day started early at 7 am and we left about 10 pm from momma-uber.  We had an incredible day and I told Caroline how special the day was to spend one on one time with her.  She is so much fun and has such a fun and positive attitude all the time.  I can't wait to do it again!
