hidden surprise
parked our cars and headed over to legoland
one minute the kids were in front of us
the next minute they were gone
ah-ha!
they found this not-so-obvious slide!
while we were walking down the spiral footbridge
they kids saw a detour half way through
...
it is the "entrance" to this slide, which, is quite tall
a second option for getting to the ground level
walk
or slide
which way would you choose?
the kids went for the obvious choice!

his dream shop
my sister in law told me that there is a pokemon shop at the airport...
lucky i asked the location of the shop before we headed off for passport and security check
otherwise we would have took off without being able to check out (and drop some money)
before coming home!
it's definitely one of the attractions for little bb!
as it was located in the shopping area outside the check points, here's the map
as soon as we spotted the shop,
little bb rushed in
and couldn't help jumping up and down
seems like he is the most excited one among all the kids *laugh*

as this was our last shopping stop
i was more lenient and was going to get a number of items
but surprisingly
all he wanted was two decks of pokemon cards
he didn't want any of the other things i wanted to get him
(like the backpack, the bag tag, plush, etc etc)
oh well, thank for your saving mami's wallet!

pleasant surprise @ the toyota commemorative museum of industry and technology
we split up today
the older kids went to the nagoya castle in the morning
and the toyota commermorative museum of industry and technology in the afternoon
for the younger one (i.e. bbb), he got to sleep in late and the priviledge to shop with mami!
*laugh*
we regrouped at the museum
i wasn't expecting much and thought we would be able to leave within 30 mins
but no, actually not surprisingly,
there were more than expected for the kids.
the kids just didn't want to leave the kids area called technoland
they got to play with tools showing them some principles and ways how things work....

the most interesting one was the wind tunnel
(hilarious to watch the drama kind and queen getting "blown" away)
next to this one was this giant virtual weaving machine
(again, hilarious to watch human size hamsters running wild in this spinning wheel!)

destination arrived.... legoland!
little bb has been talking about / dreaming about legoland ever since
we told him we would be going to nagoya...
from the moment we arrived at nagoya,
he started asking when would we be going there....
today, we finally went...
why a couple of days from the day we arrived...
we figured there would be less people and hence less queues on a weekday...
and so we were quite right
but it was a super sunny and bright day again...
we were melted before we even reached the entrance!
the kids have loads and loads of fun
even though the park isn't too big...
and so did bbb in the duplo "land"!
tiny person vs. larger than life duplo bricks!

here, bbb is looking very serious while being brought up in the middle of the sky
by the observation tower.
this is a must do ride to hide from the heat!
the staff was very kind enough to keep pointing at the air con and the seats right below it
for us to take...

of course there are also things for the tiny people
while the little people were busy riding, driving, swimming...
i went to the hello garden with bbb
here
little bb had his first time's with "exciting" rides!
first it was the bun bun bee,
we were lifted up and flying in the air,
likes bees stopping by the flowers to hunt for nectar
next we were carried around by the den den mushi snail around the park...
what appeared to be seemingly slow and stable ride
turned out to have moments of "excitment"!
there were sudden turns and mild drops which made this ride anything but standard (for a tiny person)!
then we circled around in flower wagon which would only go forward when we pull the lever...
last but not the least,
we were "lost" in the tiny people's maze...

racers in the make
this is a must-go attraction if one ever travels to nagoya with kids
to be exact,
boys
and girls who are active!
you can easily spend one full day
at
the motopia amusement park of suzuka circuit
and still find there are still rides you haven't tried or want a repeat
there are both land and water fun
on the land,
riding "two wheeler" pretending to be a motor cyclist
cruising along the racing track (claimed to be the world's best automobile racing) with a EV kart
driving / controlling an energy driven vehicle
on the water,
controlling a boat with limited energy
and
the "water park"

it was so much fun!!
