Legoland

A highlight of the trip.

We arrived at Legoland, Billund, Denmark - the town where Lego comes from - about noon on Saturday.

We dropped off our bags and headed into the park. 

A view from the Legoland revolving lookout tower.

We went on a boat, plane, mono-rail, train, roller-coasters, pirate-ship, safari jeep, airboat, canoe...

There were so many rides for a 103cm tall speed demon to go on!



Dinners at the Legoland resort have a buffet table for the shorter, little people.

Captain Red-beard guarded our hotel pirate galleon...

Darth Vader welcomed guests to the hotel

Rides, rides, and more rides. Our favourites were The Dragon (a roller-coaster that starts out slow going through a cave of a castle, then speeds up full speed) which we went on 4 times, the Ninjago Ride (a ride with 3D glasses where you shoot ninja stars and score points), and the Temple (ride where you score points for shooting different colour gems in an Indiana Jones style temple-run), and the Lego Canoe (log canoe with splash at the end).

Every time we lined up for this ride it was sunny, but would start to rain the minute we stepped into the plane. T controlled the height at which the plane flew through a joystick.

A final train ride around the resort 

Building the Lego Frozen castle with new local friends (while adults chat at the bar, of course).

A truly magical experience. The stuff of lifelong memories.
