To distinguish the subject from the theme park is important for me, as I wouldn't want you to mistake what I'm talking about. The main activity today was to purchase and start to build Lego kits. Robbie bought the Chamber of Secrets (76389), and Madelyn bought Friends Hair Salon (41743). Robbie's was budget busting, but we rarely visit, and it was clear this was the only one he wanted.
I've blogged about children and Lego before, the other grandchild who builds Lego, sorts and plans before the start of the build. This grandchild likes to jump right in, so the first few pages have been done before I can collect my thoughts, let alone some bricks. There are 8 bags in the kit, we did 4 today, for a total build time of about 1 hour 58 minutes. There were several breaks for picture taking to track the activity.

Robbie enjoyed taking pictures as much as the build I think, after we stopped building, he continued to take pictures for a while, not just of the Lego, but he started to make a story with a small dinosaur.
In the afternoon / evening, Robert and Karen's friends came over. We have met Erica and the boys before, but this was the first time we had met Kwasi. Robert and Karen prepared another excellent meal for us (salmon cooked in the smoker, chocolate brownie) we had a good time chatting and eating together.
