The Waiting Park

2024-06-23

I am sort of on summer vacation now. I have a couple of tests to finish, but I am done with regular school work until late August. Mom had some more appointments, so Grandma Wynne and Grandpa Al came over again to get me to swimming lessons.

Mom getting her throat scanned.

Giant robot vacuum!

Jumping in!

I also worked on some big LEGO projects this week. I set up a Ninjago battle, rearranged Yavin IV, and I have been reorganizing my medieval city.

Ninjago Assemble!

Bad guys ready for battle!

My whole Ninjago collection.

I moved Yavin IV again.

Ships lined up....

On Wednesday we went to the amusement park again. Dad said it should be called the "waiting park." Despite Dad's grumpiness, we did get on a lot of rides: 3x on High Roller, 5x on Excalibur, 1x on Renegade, 1x on the bumper cars, 1x on the train. A lot more riding than the last time we were here.

You can see Freya and Josh in this one.

Excited this coaster was open this trip!

This was the only thing on rails Dad was allowed to ride.

Dad did sneak onto the bumper cars with me.

On the train.

On our way out.

Since it was so close, we had to go to Bricks and Minifigs.

I only bought Hondo's tank and one of Hondo's goons - from Clone Wars.

Bingham and Billy came to the pool with us on Thursday.

We stayed home this weekend and I worked on LEGO projects, read Julie of the Wolves, and watched Space Cowboys and The Italian Job. Oh, and I mowed the lawn again.

And that was my week - take care!
