Travel log

Today was Legoland, and I'm consequently dead tired. It was a lot of fun - there's actually a significant amount of fairly hectic rides. Pierre probably enjoyed many of these even more than I did, which was very nice :) We alternated between faster and slower rides/breaks, which was a good move. The most impressive one was probably the Polar X-Plorer, which did have a VERTICAL DROP at the end of the ride. We did that twice, I screamed twice. But, as I was mentioning: theme park rides are one of the few places where it's socially acceptable to scream, and that's possibly a good thing :)

The other thing of note in Legoland is the Miniland, with all the buildings of different parts of the world. Very very nice - and impressive. We particularly enjoyed the Billund airport, as well as the Artemis ship, complete with liftoff!

I accidentally bought a red spaceman plushie - it's so cuuuute! We also spent a bit of time making minifigs - although to be completely honest I was expecting more variety in the pieces choice.

Dinner at the hotel was shrimp & asparagus, fish & root celery & wild garlic sauce, and "gâteau Marcel" (layered chocolate cake with chocolate mousse on top) with strawberries and strawberry ice cream - really good!

And we finished the evening watching videos and music videos on the couch at the hotel. Cozy and delightful <3
