It's a Legoland after all

Today, after arriving in Billund yesterday, we went to Legoland. Billund is a very, very quiet town and not really the kind of place you would except a world famous theme park. But in this small town, Billund, a long time ago Lego was first created- a toy that created fun, creativity and thought in a child's mind- and since has been on the floor in houses all over the world.


We got there at 9 o'clockish, an hour before official opening. But boy were we glad we did, at ten there were hundreds of people all queuing to get in and we were thankfully very close to the front. When it opened everybody flocked in quickly to get to the attractions, some even ran! We would have been almost at the front of the line for the new Polar X-Plorer or the Ice Flight School if Mum had gone to the toilet before we came instead of on our way to Polarland :(


But thankfully there was no line at the Ice Flight School as it just opened as we got there. Jake and I had a grudge match with the pilot school. When I was six we went to America for ten days and whilst we were there, there was a giant robotic arm, the same as Ice Pilot School, and being 6 and 7 we could only do level one, but this time I was determined to take it all the way to level five. So when we got there we loaded our level and moves onto a card, gave in to the lady and strapped in. This was the first real thrill ride I have ever done so naturally I was scared in that waiting period before it started but when it went it was very fun and I couldn't stop laughing. We did lots of other rides and things like the Polar X-Plorer(with unique five meter free-fall), Firetrucks, The Temple, Xtreme racers, Jungle Racers, Viking Splash, Lego Canoes, The Dragon, Lego Pirate Boats and the Imagination Studios. All of it was very fun.


We spent a bit of time looking around mini land and admiring all of the large amount of work going in to it all.


We think we just managed to escape the massive downpour that came soon after we left. I think that it was a brilliant day.
