San Diego Summer 2011

We were in San Diego for a week visiting Kallen's Abai and Babba (Grandma and Grandpa). Our big adventure was Legoland. They have an amusement park perfect for Kallen's age of kids. They also have a water park which we had a blast at and also an aquarium. We had a 5 day pass (purchased at the rate of a 3 day pass) and visited the park 3 different days. See the pictures from the Amusement park below! I don't think we have any pictures of Bob the Builder but he was spotted around the park a few times so I thought the song was appropriate.

Here are some pictures from the Water park. We couldn't have asked for a better day. We did a few rides before we hit the water park. Played at the water park, Kallen took a nap with daddy in the lounge chair in the shade after lunch, played some more, and then went on a few more rides in the Amusement park. It was a fun filled day. Here are some pictures from the water park.









Our last trip to Legoland was the aquarium. It was a decent aquarium and Kallen had fun going through it. We found Spongebob at the very end right before we entered the gift shop. Spongebob is one of Kallen's favorite characters so he was very excited.
He was also very excited to see the shark. He was looking for sharks in every area of the aquarium.


We of course spent a couple days at the beach. Kallen loved playing in the water. He had no fear as long as he was hanging on to our hands. He was also occupied by a large hole that some other people had dug. I don't have any pictures of us playing in the big hole but it kept us busy for quite awhile.









After the beach we of course had ice cream at the boardwalk. After ice cream Kallen wanted to go on a couple of rides. Here he is driving a boat.
He also wanted to go on this ride. He loved a ride similar to this at Lagoon last Summer though one of us were on the ride with him. This time he did this ride all by himself. It takes him high in the air and then drops him and repeats that several times. Kallen had a blast.


One evening we went downtown to Seaport Village. We of course did the carousel ride and of course had ice cream. Our normal visit to seaport village. Kallen also got to look at some big birds and even had one sit on his shoulder which he wasn't afraid of as well.





One afternoon we went to Balboa park and walked around. Kallen was drawn to the fountain. On our way back by the fountain there were other people in the fountain so we let him go in it.


Family time!






The little traveler with daddy. We had a plane change in Vegas which meant two take offs and two landings which mean being seated with the seat belt on and no electronic devices. Kallen did great though and loved the take off and going really, really fast. I guess the 11 plane trips before he turned 2 (while he could still fly for free) helped.
