Legoland – One of the perks of living here in Southern California is the constant sunny weather and mild climate. That means almost every weekend, we can enjoy a wide variety of outdoor activities. This time around, we took a short 1.5-hour drive to visit Legoland . Building play sets out of Lego bricks is still my hobby, as W and I have assembled a few projects already. Hopefully I can share our creations in a later post.

We did catch a breakfast before the drive – French press coffee, baked eggs (top) with prosciutto, potatoes and mushroom, baked with tomato and Parmesan cheese; pecan & banana griddle cakes (bottom) with whipped honey butter & warm maple syrup…..

You need to share some of your lego projects. Hehe. I got the wrong impression that legoland is for three year olds, lol.
@stevew918 - No, you’re right, Steve. This place is for three year olds and bigger kids like me! Hehehe…..
i cant believe i still havent been to legoland after living in socal for over 10+years! looks really fun though
I had no idea you were into Lego. That banana griddle cake looks so sinfully delicious. Your food porn is a welcome distraction from my work.
Legoland looks uber cool! It’d be pretty neat to see some of your creations. And the breakfast looks yummy!!
@ds0905 - You can bring 小寶貝! I’m sure he’ll like the rides!
@ElusiveWords - oh good! I’ll try to distract you more in the coming weeks!
@making_a_comeback_05 - I’ll put up a few snap shots of our work in the upcoming weeks!
They have a Legoland in Malaysia but it doesn’t look good as this.
@CurryPuffy - Cool! That’d be awesome!!
@oxyGENE_08 - I’d love to check that out too!
they have a lego land in malaysia, but i don’t think they show the same lego creations. though this is a lego post, i can’t help but to drool over that baked eggs n griddle cakes. i mean, seriously, i just had lunch!
We were at the Orlando Legoland this winter. Amazing workmanship. I wish my grandson was with me. He loves to build aircrafts with lego. i should post about them sometime. These pictures you have posted, are tremendous.
@rudyhou - The baked eggs are very delicious indeed! LOL
@ZSA_MD - Thank you, Zakiah! I’ll try to post some of the sets we built next time!
This guy I know has packed away some lego sets hoping they will go up in value.
I used to have a keyring with a lego piece on it but I am too rough for plastic.
Food and legos are easy topics to write about. I am more of a political animal and will probably not read to much more on your food porn.
