The Sea Life Aquarium is busy with special activities and a great discount offer. Legoland is paying tribute to MLK with a Lego mural depicting Kings “I Have A Dream Speech”. That must have kept those Lego builders busy for quite a while.
The weather is gorgeous here in Carlsbad right now. It’s eighty degrees and everyone is wearing shorts. Even though it is cooling off it should still be in the 70′s this weekend. Perfect weather for some Legoland fun.
January 17th is Under Water Parks Day. The Sea Life Aquarium has fun activities planned to help kids learn about marine protected areas and the world’s ocean ecosystems. In honor of Under Water Parks Day the Sea Life Aquarium is offering a great coupon for free admission for up to four kids for each paid adult. I think that the Sea Life Aquarium is usually overpriced, so this is a great deal! Find out more information here .
To get ready for your Legoland and Sea Life adventure, download my e-book The Unauthorized Legoland Guidebook from Lulu.com
If you live near the coast, celebrate Under Water Parks day and head to the beach! Find a great beach side playground like those in Oceanside, Ca and kick your heels up while the kids play. The Ocean Institute in Dana Point is hosting a seaside hike and other activities. Admission for kids under twelve is free at the Ocean Institute that day.
Rumor has it the weather is also pretty nice up north. Head to Monterey and rent a kayak to explore the beautiful Monterey Bay Sanctuary. Go Whale Watching. Explore a local tidepool.
At either end of California you can take a hike on the coastal trail .
Finally, at the risk of being a little political. As you celebrate Under Water Parks Day, look out and enjoy that oil rig free view. Let’s try work together to keep it that way. There’s a lot of political pressure right now to develop this finite resource.
Hope you all have a great weekend. Pretty soon we will be back to dreary winter so let’s take advantage of the sunshine get out and have an adventure!
Happy Trails,
Bridget
It is gorgeous out right now isn’t it? We hit up the beach this weekend and you could see forever. We are going to have to go back this weekend in honor of Under Water Parks Day. Thanks for the tip!
We are enjoying great weather here in California…so tempting to go to Legoland, I just happened to get an email from the hotel we stayed at last summer when we went and they just keep offering discounts!
