Legoland Deutschland

Last Saturday we went to Legoland Deutschland.  It is a three hour drive from our house.  I didn't want to pay to spend the night somewhere so I offered to do all of the driving (which I would have done anyway) on the condition that we did this as a long day trip instead of something that spanned two days. 

The boys had a great time.

We saw buckets and buckets of Legos.

Why Oscar doesn't have a German backpack:

Both of the boys liked driving the cars.

 

Oscar's driving experience came with a fancier driver's license and a driving class that included a discussion about proper driver etiquette.  It also cost 5€ whereas Calvin's was free (Calvin wasn't old enough to do the driving lesson).  Of course, the instruction was all in German.  Oscar told me he understood almost everything.

Sara enjoyed getting her picture taken while we were waiting for Oscar to finish his driving class.

 

Driving one car wasn't enough for the boys.  They wanted to drive the jungle cars too.

Mini-Land was very impressive.  We saw lots of famous German landmarks built out of Legos.  Here is the Brandenburg Gate.

Reichstag building (German Parliament).

Allianz Arena, home of Bayern München.

 Airbus A380.

Neuschwanstein.

 

 Venice.

 Shaq.

Everybody had a good time.  The children were tired so they slept most of the way home.
