It's about time

Atlantis Paradise Island?
Yes, Please.

How did it happen?
We were invited by Atlantis, JetBlue and LEGO to visit one of the most beautiful places on earth and to be there for the opening of the all new Atlantis Kids Adventures (AKA).
Prepare to be dazzled, like I was.

DAY ONE
7:00am meet at the airport.
New backpack, compliments of jetBlue Airways.

We met all sorts of new friends.
You've met LANSE.
Now meet the guy who created him.
Erik Varszegi: LEGO Master Builder.
If I had to choose all new best friends it would be all the people from LEGO.
World Traveler
Driving down the road and spot this?
Is this really happening?

Our deluxe hotel room in the sky.
Our view.Right below our room.
P.S. They are sting rays!

The weather was to die for.


Do you have a wet suit in her size?
Of course.

The girls were dying with excitement.
Please meet our very own family dolphin, Cosmo.
He's single, afraid of sand (from being previously beached) and rescued from Louisiana from when Hurricane Katrina turned their world upside down.
"He feels like touching a hot dog."
Thank you Aunt Meagan for giving Lexi that description. It stuck.
She latched right on.
This was by far one of the funnest things to experience and this was just the first day!
There is so much to do there!

That night we toured the
ancient ruins of Atlantis called
THE DIG.
It's FILLED with thousands of things to explore.



The girls made a new friend. This grouper is nastily huge.
He'll answer any question you have.




Ahhh the seahorse.
A fascinating creature who has it all figure out.
The male carries the babies.Geniuses.



List of requirements when you go...
See the Dolphins at Dolphin Cay.
Explore the Dig.
Bring your camera.
