here's a picture of the castle/pirate ship in the Mini's Lounge

 we were able to enter the park through a special hotel guests only entrance (or the secret entrance, as dashiell called it)
we got to go in an hour early, which allowed us access to 5 rides (safari trek, coastersaurus, fairy tale brook, kids power tower and 1 more (the one where you pull yourself up))
we were the very first riders on safari trek, one of brenny's favorites

 brennan was ready to ride coastersaurus --
which dashiell said he wasn't scared to ride, but rather didn't want to waste his time "waiting"
hmmm...

 back to the duplo village and the train..of course!

 cargo ace!

 fishing for a prize
brenny won a baby sharkie and dashiell won a baby penguin
(you'll see them in the pictures later)

 making our way to the water park, where nana went ahead to save us a spot
(can you spot baby sharkie and baby penguin??)

 (now do you see baby sharkie and baby penguin??)

 the airplane ride~

 rainbow popsicles~

 now that dashiell knows who harry potter is, these guys look more familiar ;-)

 back at the aquarium, brennan was waiting to be touched by the baby shark and also touched the chocolate chip starfish

 dashiell was getting hugs from the sea urchin

 back at the hotel...

 checking out the hotel pool
(because a full day at legoland just isn't enough!)

 all washed up and heading out to islands burgers for dinner!

 can you see all the words that dashiell came up with (all on his own, i might add) from the word PARADISE

 the boys working on their shelob spider from lord of the rings

 knocked out -- finally~
