Carlsbad's Legoland plans record-breaking tower
If you're going to Legoland over Memorial Day, be prepared to work — hard.
Starting at 10 a.m. Thursday and ending at 9:45 a.m. May 29, Legoland visitors are invited to build, brick by interlocking plastic brick, the world's tallest Lego tower. (In 2005, Carlsbad, Calif., theme-park visitors built a record 92.6-foot tower but were outdone last year by a 93.43-foot one at the Denmark park.)
The theme of the wannabe top tower, expected to use 465,000 Legos, will be a pirate ship's mast — and coincides with the debut of a ride, Captain Cranky's Challenge. Info: (760) 918-5346, www.legoland.com.
