Photo of the day: The inauguration of President Barack Obama re-created with Legos.

Quote of the day: "Mommy, which one is Obama?" (Can you find Barack and Michelle? Hint: She's wearing a yellow dress.)

Low point of the day: Many of the Legoland rides such as the boats, are for two people. My kids are too young to ride alone and I can't go with one of them and leave the other back in line. We're all feeling a little frustrated. We see the cars, which the kids can drive by themselves, but the line is way too long.

High point of the day: We find the Imagination Zone and walk into a room full of Legos. We spend two hours creating a village with houses, sidewalks, gardens, and people. And then we discover the Lego horses, a ride the kids can go on solo. The line is short. They love it! We leave the park feeling happy and satisfied.
