One of our favorite parks has always been Legoland California. While sure we aren't the age range for this park it's just awesome to have a park dedicated to our favorite toy and we love any chance we get to head to this park. Last week we were at the premiere for the all new Lego Movie 4D (be sure to check out our review if you haven't yet) but we also had some fun in the park prior to the premiere and were able to get some pics of the all-new Ninjago land that's opening later this spring. Written by Gregg Condon We'll start off with a look at Ninjago which kind of to our surprise is going to be located very close to the front of the park. We really love this new trend that parks have of doing entire lands around new attractions. Some of the Ninjago characters No date on the new ride/land has been announced, but it will be this Spring. Below on the map you can see the area where the new land is going just to the right of the main entrance of the park. A few weeks ago the park sent us some sneak peek pics of the ride building and the new vehicles. Be sure to check it out here (and some of the pics below). New since our last visit is the all new Lego Heartlake City addition. It's definitely an area for the girls. The Carousel was very large and oddly didn't play any music, just clopping of the horses. Nice characters of the Lego Friends. We are definitely not the intended audience for this area of the park, but we thought it was very nicely done. Before we move on into the rest of the park be sure to check out our HD POV of the Fairy Tale Brook at the park. It's a great little ride. We'd also taken some video of Mini-Land but we didn't really care for the way it turned out. Next time we're at the park we're going to spend some time getting some great video of Mini Land. We've got some cool ideas on how to pull that off. One of our favorite parts of Legoland are all of the quirky little Lego figures. The Dragon coaster which if you haven't ridden it is basically a Lego version of Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios. Those who have ridden will know what I mean. One of these days we'll try and arrange it with the park to get some POV of this great fun family coaster. Legoland also has one of the best Splash Battles we've seen. Don't forget to head down to the park and check out The Lego Movie 4D ... NOW OPEN!!! Thanks again for checking out the update and for all of the incredible support.
