Alabama 2023 - July 9 - Land of Lego (2)

We completed the Lego build today, well I say we, I mean Robbie, who did at least 95% of it. As with all kits, there were a few mistakes, and a few places where the instructions were not entirely clear. Robbie had measured the time taken on his tablet.  The build total time for all sessions, excluding breaks, was 4:31:48.83. Jo and Madelyn completed theirs yesterday, and did not time themselves.  The picture below was taken by Madelyn.

Later we went to Buc-ee's, it's new(ish) to Auburn. For those who haven't seen one, it's a Gas (Petrol) station.  As with all such places, there's a shop attached, the difference here is that the shop is enormous and stocks almost everything you can think of.  Why would you suddenly need to buy a large gas barbecue on your way across America?  Well, you can get one, and all the things that go with it.  But it doesn't have everything, the cowboy hats come in many sizes, but not mine, how sad.  The place was heaving, I think it has become a local tourist attraction in its own right - definitely an experience.

After that it was nail painting time, my turn will come tomorrow, I think.
