When most people think of Legoland, they imagine giant Lego sculptures, and an amusement park.  Which is pretty much what it is, actually, an amusement park appropriate for children ages 3 to say 12, as long as the 12 year old doesn’t have to hold your hand, of course.

Less obvious when you think of Legoland, at least the San Diego, CA location, are the water-related features.  The park has an adjoining aquarium that charges its own admission fee or a discount with “park hopper” tickets.  It is opening a new water park on May 28.  And within Legoland itself is a mini water wonderland perfect for children to cool off on a hot day of amusement park fun.

Lock up your spring chickens, Gonzo is in town.

The Great Gonzo may not have the best ideas, but he is a lot of fun. That’s why you don’t want him planning your trip to Disney’s California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort, but he’s worth a visit (along with the other Muppets in their own theater!).
