LegoLand Florida!

By -
We diverted from the crew again today.

We hired a car and took Brayden to Legoland Florida. It was a 45 min drive but well worth it and Brayden had a great day! A real experience driving on the wrong side of the road, not to mention sitting on the wrong side of the car!!!!




We watched a waterski show 'Battle for Blackbeard's Bounty'


We went on plenty of rides and the beauty of Legoland was that it was quiet (still a lot of people) in comparison to Disney and we were able to get onto rides quickly...which meant for more rides in the end.
I think our favourite was the Battle of Chi. We got to shoot targets and other people in boats with water...they were also able to get us...but on a hot day walking around wet was welcomed!



By far the most spectacular part of Legoland was all of the Lego models around the park and in particular the models in 'Miniland'




Miniland is made up of iconic places in America - all made from Lego!



Brayden's favourite part though was the Educational Program he did where he learnt how to program a robot (made from Lego) to do particular tasks. A wonderful 45 min program!



A wonderful day....let's not talk about getting lost on the way back to the resort!

Erawan Museum

What an amazing day! After a magnificent breakfast at our hotel it was time to check out! At 10am, Geoff, Chalor, Poi and Arnut picked us up from our hotel. We travelled down Sukhumvit Rd with no idea where we were going! Geoff didn't want us to know...it was a surprise!! Well, as we turned the corner our breath was taken away by the most amazing three headed elephant.  We were heading to the Erawan Museum. The Erawan Museum, according to the founder Lek Viriyaphant's ideal wish, was aimed to serve as a showcase of the spirit of Asia where the essence of Arts and 4 major religions have been preserved in order to make known to Asian people and the world the foundation of the eastern civilisation cultivated and transmitted through the philosophical inspiration. An absolutely amazing place.... We headed to Mega Bang Na for lunch and treated the youngsters to the last western meal for 8 days ( McDonalds - Arnut was in his element!) We then travelled nearly 2 hours to get to Pak Hai

A rainy day in Singapore

We woke to this this morning... Rain and a storm.  Our plans changed a little as we didn’t feel Gardens By the Bay would be worth it in the rain.  Jason started the day with a traditional Asian style breakfast... We then headed off to see the ‘Merlion’ The Merlion is a form of welcome to the visitors to Singapore. A real tourist thing to do is pose with the Merlion with the water entering your mouth...we gave it a shot!! We decided to head to Orchard Road for some window shopping. How many Louis Vuitton or Victoria’s Secret shops can you have in one stretch??? The hands down winner though was the Magnum store...where you could create your own Magnum!!! We didn’t but watched a couple of other aussies create theirs! I found another scrapbooking store. Absolutely gorgeous. The walls and store were lined with gorgeous projects. Lots of great things to buy but I actually walked out with nothing 🤪 So unlike me!!! I also went to the store under our hotel...with nothing purchased there either
