It took us quite a while to get to Legoland. We encountered quite a bit of constructiuon in multiple areas along the autobahn, but thankfully did not have the six kilometer (at least) staus (traffic jam) that we viewed on the opposite side of the motorway.
During that time we made multiple bathroom stops, passed out goldfish crackers, small packets of Haribo gummy bears, and water.
Lauren soon noticed that Nick had saved over her Imagine Teacher DS game.
Lauren : "Nick! I can't believe that you did that! I am going to write in my journal that you are a bad boy!"
Nicholas: "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" (As if this has some bearing on his future).
Ryan "Dad, it's lunchtime and we haven't had lunch yet! All we have had is goldfish and water". We are such mean, uncaring parents, aren't we? How dare we starve our kids as we take them on a Legoland adventure, when we would love to take a trip to a warm, sandy beach....sans offspring?
Nick, after asking every two minutes, "How many minutes until we get there?"......and being told about two hours......replies, "I think I am going to say it will be ten minutes since I like that number better".
Yeah, if it only worked that way!
We are home, unpacked, and ready to begin the work/school week. We will post pictures soon!

Haha Cute overheard conversations from the kids. How cool you went to LegoLand! How was it?!
I would like that number much better too! You are good parents to take them. My kids would make me nuts!:)
I think you DO need to head to a beach "sans offspring" sometime soon! You deserve it!
Hey, you survived!!! That goes in the victory category.
LOL!! Sounds like fun. I love your outlook, very positive! Your kids are so lucky to have such a cool mama! Great post.

I'm jealous of the Legoland trip, first off. And secondly, are you 100% sure she doesn't have some kind of a magic voodoo diary, and he was right to be afraid?
I'd look into it.
Oh, I so wished that it worked that way.
I have been hearing about you from Hilary. She is my daughter and I am grateful to know her. You did a comment on my blog and I thank you for it. I am looking at some of your postings. You, too, look like a fun person!
