Yesterday, Legoland in Billund opened for 2008, and since it's only 2 minutes by bike from where I am right now - and I have a "sæson pas" - I thought I'd drop in.

It was cold but not raining, and the sun even peeked through the clouds a few times. It was pretty crowded, but not as bad as Disney World in May. The donut stands didn't open until noon, which was a bummer, but the rides were going. There's nothing quite as amusing as watching shivering, bundled-up kids stand in front of the new fenced-off Pirate water park area, longing for May 1st.

I wandered around for a while, inspecting some of the amazing Miniland displays, and had lunch with former-and-future webmistress Leah and her family, in an American western-themed restaurant. <sarcasm>It's a good thing they didn't go overboard on the western motif.</sarcasm> The food was very good, although I'm still not used to soft drinks without ice

I didn't have my actual camera with me, but I took some cell phone pictures with my new cell phone. They turned out amazingly well for a cell camera. You can see them on my Brickshelf account. I'll probably take lots more over the next few weeks/months.

Today is sunny, although clouds are rolling in. If I go again, I should probably go soon...
