| Well, I have (just) returned!! Woo-Hoo! Fun trip. I will post my reflections upon my LL experience a little later, but the early word is that it is definately worth it. Compared to SeaWorld and the San Diego Zoo, the kids (9 & 11) by far enjoyed LL (...) (25 years ago, 5-Jul-99, to lugnet.legoland)
| | | | | Re: My visit was great!
|
| Well, I thought it was ok, especially since we got there early. Kids tend to tire out by afternoon so later in the day it quieted down some. The evenings weren't packed at all. It certainly wasn't like Disneyland or Great America by any means... (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jul-99, to lugnet.legoland)

| | | | | Crowded at Legoland
|
| I will be at Legoland California the weekend of July 16-18. How are the crowds? I was at the park on opening weekend and it was quite pleasant--few lines, no huge crowds. I understand park attendance has climbed considerably since then. Also...has (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.legoland.california)

| As some of you may know, I'm an infrequent participant in these areas due to the intermittant bouts of heavy travel I have to do. Sometimes, however, this works to my advantage, and last week was an exceptionally good example... I was originally (...)
