LegoLand

We spent the evening at LegoLand in Somerville, courtesy of Phil. The company that he works for did some of the electrical work, so Phil was able to get tickets for us all to get in this evening, which was "Contractor Appreciation Night" or something. LegoLand does not actually open to the public until next week, as it was literally just built. 

The kids had a great time -- the theme park is for kids aged 3 to 9 and they both enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Trying to round them up to get from one exhibit to the next was like herding cats --? Is that how the expression goes ? The park features all things Lego including 2 amusement park rides and a 4D movie , which it was very fun to watch Amelia's reaction to -- she kept trying to reach out and grab things off the screen and pretty much shrieked non stop through the whole thing. 

As you can imagine both kids went to bed solidly past their bedtime, but it was well worth it. 

Here are some pictures of the kids:
