smaller sets, so he wanted a big one. So the night before his birthday as he was getting ready for bed, he said, "So, dad. What legos did you get me? You don't have to say which set, but is it Star Wars, Atlantis..." Smart kid.
He got the Atlantis research station/sub. I think he liked it!
Yep. Lots of parts.
He also got bubbles. It was fun to see them shoot up over the building, and into the apartment.
Momma and Morgan made him a home made cake. It was a chocolate cake with a chocolate ganache. It. Was. Awesome. And it had sprinkles!
So, for part of Nick's birthday, we let him decide where we would go on Saturday. He had 2 choices. Disneyland Paris or Aquaboulevard. He chose Aqua because we weren't sure if the weather would be good or not. This place has a life sized whale that you climb into and slide out of, wave machine, swing rope, many fountains, a dozen water slides, and huge hot tubs. There are a lot of pools and a beach outside, but it was just a bit cool for us to be out there.
They also had indoor wake boarding. Seriously. OF COURSE Nick and I had to try it out. We had fun.
Side note: Just like every other public pool in Paris, there is a strict policy on suits. Men and boys need to wear tight fitting bathing suits NOT swim trunks. So, Nick and I got new suits. I'll have to say that yes, I was extremely uncomfortable at first; however, I soon realized it made no difference. Everyone was wearing the same thing. There were plenty of guys that had no business wearing a "speedo" type suit, but had to. I kind of got around that by purchasing a pair of tight running shorts and wearing those instead.
Overall, it was a great birthday.
