Legoland: Being a Kid Again

In case it wasn't obvious, LEGO is a Danish Company! It started production in 1923, and the same family has owned the business the whole time. I visited Legoland in Jutland with DIS October 17th. It's a themepark, with lots and lots of examples of the amazing things you can do with Legos. Below is a model of "Nyhavn" in Copenhagen. It looks exactly right!

Fun facts about Legos: there are about 62 bricks per person on this planet - LEg GOdt= play well - won "Toy of the Century" - about 7 Lego sets are sold each minute - children of the world spend about 5 billion hours a year playing with Legos - there are 914 ways to combine 6 Lego bricks
