I’m not complaining, mind you… But I WILL rate air travel with 2 kids as high impact. Certainly, the focus of the day is limited to the logistics of transferring multiple bodies to a new location. Not much time or energy for anything else…

So tonight I’m catching up on email and working on some new screen designs for the PeopleAggregator. I’m sitting by the pool working as long as Apple will let me. (I’m sure it won’t be the 4.5 hours of battery life they tell me about in their technical specs.) But it’s still a gorgeous scene in the beautiful 85 degree evening. (And it seems so mod. Yes, mod as in Mod Squad.)

But as I work, I notice something about San Diego: Finding quiet spaces in any kind of populated area what-so-ever is next-to impossible. Fans, air conditioners, pool pumps, refrigerator motors and more. There is a constant whirring here. Motors and motors and motors, all in a gigantic effort to keep things cool.

I haven’t decided if I really dislike this whirring yet. It’s still in the observation stage. I think it may end up blending in. Like so many forms of white noise in our lives.

Matthew had a blast and we all had a great time watching Matthew. He would have loved it even more if he was 4 inches taller.

Legoland is much bigger than I expected. It feels about the same size as Disneyland or Great America when those parks started. Nothing for adults though. In fact, it seems the target market for Legoland must be 5 to 9 year old (mostly male) kids that play with Lego. A bit narrow for my taste.
