We left last Wednesday bright and early and got on the road by 4 AM!! We stopped for breakfast in St. George then made our way to San Diego. On the way we stopped in Baker, Home of the Worlds Biggest Thermometer!! At almost 11 am it was already 99 degrees!!!!!
While on the road we saw this truck, and I loved the saying so I had to take a picture!!!
After getting to San Diego, we headed over to the Convention Center. There was a bus stop across from our hotel that ran especially for the convention. It was nice on the way back to the hotel, but it would have been faster to walk the 1 1/2 miles to the convention center, then to wait for the bus and sit in traffic to get there.
We got to the convention center and got our badges early. We waited for about an hour or so to get onto the floor. This is a view of some signs in the coolness that is the convention center. This place is HUGE!!!
We started watching the first season of Dexter before we left, so I was excited to see banners for the show.
And we have seen the first season of True Blood too and there are banners all over for the show too! I loved it!
When we finally got onto the floor, Pat went over to buy his stuff and Karri and I wandered. We found a booth promoting a new video game Marvel Super Hero Squad!! (like my Indiana Jones Guys) The game was fun to play and it should be out before Christmas!!
We also played TMNT Smash-Up! It's like Smash Bros Brawl. I was April and I totally beat Karri!!
They were promoting the new LEGO Rockband game coming out soon, so there was a whole guitar, microphone and drum set made out of Legos!! 
Lego is also making Toy Story sets too! So there was a giant Buzz Lightyear!!!
In the Mattel booth there was a He-Man's sword. Pat ignored the sign and tried to take it.
Here are some of the Lego Toy Story guys.
We found yet another game to try out! The new Indiana Jones Lego 2 game. They have re-done all of the levels and added Crystal Skull to the game too! You can even play the game split screen if you have 2 people playing!! I'm really excited about this one :)
The floor was only open for a few hours, but Pat was able to get most of his toys that night. Here we are waiting for the bus to take us back to the hotel.
What a cute couple!
I'm still editing pictures from the other days, so I'll get them posted as soon as I can.
