We had never been to Legoland so we decided to give it a whirl on our way home from disneyland. I'll start with the last picture of the day first...just for your viewing pleasure.
Here is Lucy right after she barfed all over herself and the aquarium. it was lovely rinsing out all her clothes and blanket in the bathroom. this is her so sad because she had to take all her clothes off and wear her sweater...and because she just barfed. this cute picture almost made it worth it...
until she continued to vomit THE ENTIRE 6 HR. TRIP HOME. we are talking barf every 5-10 minutes for an hour and a half and then sporadically throughout the rest of the trip. wow.
it was so sad and when Lincoln started feeling "funny" and holding a cup to his mouth i told Peder- "if he starts barfing we are getting a hotel! i cannot do this!" luckily Lincoln was all right. it was probably just the smell of vomit in the car for hours and hours. it kinda makes me feel woozy just thinking about it now. Luckily after the first vomit we stopped at a gas station and i bought 3 large soda cups, ya know "just in case" she threw up again. it was the best $1.50 i have ever spent.
now rewind. here is legoland in all it's glory...before the barfing started.
we had a really fun time there. it helped tremendously that it was raining in the morning so NO ONE else came to the park. well, hardly anyone anyway. we rarely had to wait in a line and when we did it was really short. in fact they had a roller coaster that Lucy could even ride and we all went on it 3 times in a row. the kids thought it was so great.
so there is our trip. i love making family memories. actually this trip reminded me of a time when i was young and our family drove to sea world. I'm a barfer remember...and i made it all the way there without throwing up...until....we pulled into our parking space at sea world and i just lost it. i threw up all over the truck! it makes me laugh just thinking about it now. lucky me I've passed down the tradition to my kids, and someday they will laugh too.

Sick dude! I hate barf.....but it is funny to talk about especially when it happens to your family not mine! So glad Lucy completed your vacation.
I have a car-sick kid. We don't do trips w/out drugging him up first. And he always gets an extra set of clothes packed "just in case".
Legoland is fun-if you're under 10 I think. Isn't that roller coaster a blast!
There is a special place in heaven for mothers who go through stuff like that. I'm just sure of it.
