What to Expect at Legoland Discovery Center in Atlanta There are a few Legoland Discovery Centers around the country now. We went to the one in Atlanta during spring break. These are a fun way to spend a few hours together as a family. If your kids have never been to Legoland Orlando or Legoland in Southern California, you should totally just tell them this is Legoland and never have to book the larger vacation.

Just for the record: I was out walking, and I left Alan in charge, so this one wasn’t my fault. Speaking of ‘in charge’, I will never, ever leave Daniel “in charge” again.
