The Art of the Brick...

After church on Sunday we decided to head downtown Singapore. 
Logan was stoked he got to ride on the double decker bus and sit at the front. 
Almost like he was driving it. 



When we got downtown we hit up the ArtScience Museum. 
It was showcasing The Art of the Brick-- Legos! 


Papa and his boys outside of the Museum.




Emme & Logan. 
On the lower level below the Art of the Brick was a showcase of Mummies.
We bypassed that one. 


This tells about the creator of this showcase: Nathan Sawaya
More info about this: 


Here are some of the 52 sculptures featured:


All of these are made out of Legos. 




Had to do it. 



They had some fun prop things for the kids to do. 



Picture itself and the frame all Legos. 
It was awesome. 


They had an Iphone that turned the picture into Lego's.




The Pantheon.
On each of the description blocks it told how many Legos it took to build.
Any guesses on how many this one took?


10,000


The world out of Lego's!
Our side of the world now. 


They had some magnadoodles where you could create your own art work. 


My engineers at work. 






AWESOME!
This whole Dinosaur skeleton out of Legos. 
This was the boys favorite by far! 


Place where they had puppets behind it for a puppet show. 


A model of the ArtScience Museum. 


At the end they had an activitiy for the kids. 
They boys got to create their own person, color, cut it out and glued it to a stick for a puppet. 





Reflexology with Legos... 



After leaving the ArtScience Museum we headed out to see some more sites. 
On the Helix bridge. At night the whole bridge lights up blue. 
Can't wait to see that!

Ready to go! 
Too bad it was just a prop! :) 


Singapore Flyer
World's largest Observation Wheel. 
We did not go on this, but it was neat to see! 


Across from the Singapore Flyer is the Gardens by the Bay. 
That's one for another day! 


We hit up the ice cream stand after that! 
In Singapore they are famous for putting a block of ice cream between to wafers. 
It really is delicious and only $2. 
It really is true, the cheaper and longer the line in Singapore it is the BEST! 


Emme & Logan after ice cream. 


The famous Merlion Park.  



Dad attemping to hold up Marina Bay Sands. 
So strong! 

My pictures got out of order... sorry not going to fix... 
Back to the Art of the Brick



I think this little boy has stolen his Papas heart! 


Logan thinking his Mom is crazy for posing. 





















Such a fun day with such interesting art work!
