Pants Optional and other Rules for Legoland.



So for my birthday, a friend and I went to Legoland. Words can't sum up how awesome it was, so pictures will have to do instead. 
The train station. Where all adventures begin.  
Handy compass on the ceiling. 
  


The place we stayed in had a children's room with these books. Apparently I have a Danish reading age of sub-3yrs. But the pictures were so good, I don't even want to know what the real story was. 

I can only assume they kidnapped the woman from the first photo and this is them hiding the body. 
 
Starting the 10km walk to Legoland

To Legoland!

Pretty rural Denmark!


Plane coming into (Lego)land

Lego security. The best kind of security. 


Legoland!!!
 
I dropped my Lego icecream. It was an emotional moment. 










Nyhavn - Copenhagen.
In Lego form.

Lego hot-air balloon!


The trees are grown using bonsai principles. 






Why travel to Ribe when I can just go to the Lego version instead?


Danish Hoedown 


All of the scenes have little things like this in them. 

Legoland doesn't just replicate iconic global locations. They also do infrastructure. 




Lego whales!







Even the rocks are made from Lego!


Lego NASA





Possibly the coolest dress ups ever.
It's the one dress, and you can flip it so you're either a princess or a pirate. 


Headbands with fruit. What better way to remember my trip to Legoland?




No vikings, y'hear?





What's more scary than saying "hiss hisssss"?




What cha going to do, Legoland?

Pants seemingly not required. 

Just chilling with a Pharaoh. 

 


This was the best ride ever. You sat in a cart thing and were given a laser-tag gun and had to shoot targets on the wall. I won. Comprehensively. 

Lady-cactus and Man-cactus

Again, pants not necessary. 

It's a lego polar bear cub!



Who needs to *buy* souvenirs when you can dress up in the shop?





Not sure why anyone, outside of a Legoland set designer, would need a pack which only has Lego doors. 




I'm just not convinced you really need a specialist kit to create a straight tower from black lego bricks. 


GIANT LEGO MAN!

They have an entire Star Wars section!















EWOKS!

And back to not-Star Wars legoland. 





No pants. 




Lego Harlots. 


No stripping?

This is pretty cool. They're near all the water rides. You put in 30dkk and it dries you off. 

Nakey Lego man. 

Even the bins are Lego!


Penguins
(not made from lego)



The greatest pantomine ever.
The actors communicated solely through saying "aye" in varying pitches and degrees of sleaziness. 






Lego nipples.
These guys are pretty serious about their attention to detail.

Ass. 


Me + Giant Crabs










No pants. 

Things I've learnt:

  • Legoland is ambivalent towards pants. 
  • Taking photos of souvenirs is better than actually buying them. 
  • It is entirely possible that all the great sights of the world will disappoint me as they will not be made from Lego.
