Legoland Windsor

We, along with hundreds of other thousands of people, had the idea to take advantage of the (rare) sunny day, and we went to Legoland.

It was a fun day, especially in the areas that were really focused on Legos--a fantastic miniture city of London, for example. The boys loved watching all the trains. They also had an area where they could make cars and then race them with other kids who did the same.

The water area was fun, they got to push buttons and water would come splashing out. The lines, however, were not designed for Tolkas.

Strangest Dream

Here is the trailer for a soon-to-be-released documentary about Joseph Rotblat, "The Strangest Dream." I worked with the director a bit and helped him get some materials for the film. It was interesting to learn more about how the whole process works. We're doing a launch of it in Washington DC and in London, and many other countries. Joey has a cameo appearance, which is very cool, since as you know he is named after Jo Rotblat.

What Do Boys Do When It Rains A Lot??

Sigh. Lord of the Flies, Ware Episode.

And Still It Rains

"The weather is likely to be very wet and unsettled across much of England tomorrow. ...Last month was one of the wettest and darkest Augusts on record, during which 317mm of rain fell – 154% more than usual." Sigh.
