Hope you don't clog up your arteries too much whilst travelling!

Ah travelling. Making me jealous right now

One thing I hope to do if not next year, the year after, is to go to Botcon and various other attractions.

Can't wait to see what other nice little foods you pick up along the way

A few things about Legoland.

Yes, it is awesome. Miniland was quite spectacular.
There was nothing special at the shop there (I was interested in finding the Technic car, but they were sold out). Prices were generally a lot cheaper than at retail here.
My daughter really loved the Pirate area, where she played in the little kids water stuff for ages.

Today doesn't have much to report, as it was a day at the San Diego Zoo, for Demonac's family. It was interesting, but meant another whole day of no toy hunting for me... and I've seen zoos and animals before.
Anyway, we woke up earlier today, to get our 'free' breakfast and leave for an earlier opening time. We were at the zoo by 9.45, and did the bus tour first to get a look over most of the park. We then walked around most of the zoo, until 5.30pm. (I took lotsa photos, which will be on my actual botcon holiday report later)
We all had Taco Bell tonight, since it is right next door to the hotel... and we were lazy tonight.

Nothing much else to say for Saturday (here), as the rest of the evening was spent in the room eating, doing stuff on the computer, and helping Demonac figure out things on my toys.

I'm working on the Legoland pics tonight, so could get some of that posted up in the next few hours (in the Lego section).


Tomorrow... Toy Hunting.

Tomorrow... Toy Hunting.

I just had word from Mrs. Demonac that she has cancelled your toy hunt.

Is that race car human alliance???????
Does he tranform into a shield?

This one? It doesn't really transform into anything, as the conversion is to an 'armed mode'.

Glad to hear everyone is enjoying themselves and I hope that is a continuing trend throughout the trip.
I loved your write-ups last year Griffin and am enjoying this year's also, we 'peasants' appreciate you doing this dude.
