Advantages: Kids will love it
Disadvantages: tickets are a bit expensive
UPDATED ON 31-08-01 After reading some of the comments, I have decided to add more of my opinion. Last Bank Holiday weekend, we decided to take our son to Legoland. It was great fun although I didn't enjoy it as much as my little one did. Obviously because it is more suitable for kids. Don't get me wrong, it is definitely worth a visit. I personally liked the models that were made as one of the comments say. Just imagine, to make a Dinosaur that they have at the entrance must have taken yonks to build. Where is it located: - Windsor Park Limited Windsor Berkshire SL4 4AY Booking & Info :-08705 04 04 04 Website:- http://www.legoland.co.uk Prices of Tickets:- You can buy tickets online but it has to be atleast 7 days in advance. They do send the tickets by first class post. There is a separate number for Group tickets sales (+44) 01753 626 100 or fax on (+44) 01753 626 200. Adult – £ 19.00 Child – £ 16.00 Senior- £ 13.00 Citizen As I have a discount card, it only costed me £16.50 for an adult and £13.50 for a child. This covers most of the rides in the actual theme park. We took off from our place at 10:00 am and we were there at 10: 45 am. The Traffic was not that bad. As soon we entered the Park, my son noticed all the characters and letters made out of Lego. He was getting all excited. Why? Because he knew that his mummy is not going to refuse him today for anything and everything. I believe that when we go out to have fun, there should not be any restrictions. We are going there to enjoy ourselves. So it was time for my son to make the most of it. Rides and Attractions: - There are quiet a few attractions in Legoland. The Beginning starts off with the following attractions:- The Big Lego Shop Cafeteria The Camera Shop The Hill Train, which takes you in
side the Theme Park for all sorts of rides and attractions. The Creation Centre where kids can play with all sorts of Lego Lego Racers Then comes The Imagination Centre :- Space Tower Freestyle Workshops Ice Cream Parlour Sky Rider Imagination Theatre where they are show Life on Mars. DACTA workshops Then Duplo Gardens :- Whirly Birds Waterworks Duplo Playtown Lego Clothes Shop Fairy Tale Brook Duplo Train Willow Stage Restaurant Extreme Team Challenge Then comes Traffic:- Driving School L-Drivers Boating School Pizza Parlour Ballon School Then comes Town:- The Explorer’s Institute My Town Harbour Harbourside Restaurant Grill Restaurant Picnic Grove The Technic Garage Brick Brother’s Souvenir Co. The Magic Theatre I-Spy Express Coca-Cola Fountain Brickadilly’s Carousel, Chairoplane and Ferris Wheel Brickadilly’s Circus Tent Adventurer’s Wave Surfer Wild Woods comes next: - Amazing Mazes Spinning Spider Pirate Goldfish (there is an additional charge) Restaurant Pirate Falls The Rat Trap The Enchanted Forest Muscle Maker Then comes Castleland:- Dragon Knight’s Castle The Dragon Coaster The Lego Mindstorms Learning Centre The Knight’s Table Restaurant The Turret Shop Dragon’s Apprentice Lastly Miniland:- 28 million Lego bricks used to create this miniland. It is located at the heart of the Park. We went into the most of the rides. Out of which I believe all of us enjoyed going in to the Pirate Falls. Basically it is similar to the one that is in Alton Towers where they have wooden logs falling from a certain height, splashing water and wetting you. You see your photo taken whilst the take off. We bought
it for £3.99 in a form of a key chain. In the garden area, there were lots of models made out of Lego. They had Tower of London, Buckingham Palace and Waterloo Station with lots of trains passing by. As the park shuts down at 7.00 pm, everybody started heading back towards the car park. We went to shops and did lots of shopping. It was definitely worth the trip. I am glad we went there.

- 06/09/01 Like Myk, you left me wanting more info. I've never been to Windsor but I've been to the original at Billund, Denmark. The core attractions are the same but the peripheral ones are fantastic at Billund. A collection of toys and a fantastic dolls house being some. You don't even have to be a Dane to appreciate it. |
