I hope this will be the first year I can be there. Sure, I hope! *sweet* *y*

It will be the first time for me, I think I'm gonna build something to put in the layout of BeLUG.

[Wouwie]

Well...It's getting closer..And I'm coming the 16th

Anybody else?

[Zorro]

I will come on Friday, that is if I'm not too tired from working (renovating bathroom) and if I can convince my dad to come.

If not, maybe the second week but I doubt that since my parents work then...

Anyone else?

I will go tomorrow, the 16th. Ofcourse they forcasted for this day the most rain.

But I'm very excited to go.

Ofcourse there are many children who are astonized by the great mocs and every 2 seconds will bump into me or even push me aside by the fences , and ofcourse there is the heavy Smell of Fries and other fat snacks , but It is always very nice to be there and look at the many things and try to buy some great second hand lego you always searched for.

Shove em' back! And when they call their parents and their mom comes over and starts yelling at you, just ignore her. Then add a witty side comment to show her you didn't hear a word she said.

P.S. It's tomorrow!

Make it certain you do! (if ya go and if ya see them that is).

I might not make it after all it seems, unless I can borrow my brothers car (which will be difficult). My dad needs my car for his work, since his is "on strike" .

So please, I NEED to see pictures of the events!

[Wouwie]

No pirates...Only Medival Market Village and the Clone with the golden prints..Not more...But still, some cool mocs..But mostly towns and an lovely Star Wars display form Hoth, Cantina, Deathstar landing bay, the CIS attack on the Wookie's or whatever their name is :P and a Clone Building event.

[???theriddler???]

[Wout]

In the lego designers stands there were the new sets Of Racers, Tiny Turbo's, ferari and Technic, also the great Medieviel Marketplace. I talked with Mark Stafford who designed some Agents sets and he said there will be around 5 new ones in 2009.

It was great

There may not actually be the relevant display case there, but there is this picture on the website!

(Look closely at the main display case and you will notice there are Pirate boxes inside)

(Shame it wasn't there! Flase advertising methinks )

Here is a photographic account of my adventures at Legoworld:

to enlarge pictures, click them and then hit 'large'

This is Legomannetje's layout. Legomannetje specializes in 1970s Lego and old style 'stiff' minifigs.

When I waited for a train, I was the only person with a face:

The train took me to the underground station of an equally impressive, but very different city layout: Erik Guting's city.

I sat on a wall and sucked in the views:

Then I went further, looking for new adventures.

I met Mahjqa, who let me take a ride in his fairground attraction:

And he gave me a bottle of Red from his soft drink factory:

And there was more excitement when I met Menno Gorter who took me for a ride on his mechanical crab. (His face looks familiar, bly the way...)

And he even let me drive the thing:

Enough excitement, it was time for a more relaxing environment. I walked to Aliencat's farm, but unfortunately a UFO had landed in a field, killing off the cattle.

And the house of our Belgian friends Patje and steven turned out to be haunted and ghost-ridden.

But that was no problem, really - I had dinner with them.

So, I'm looking back at a good day. Let me conclude with a picture of me waiting for the train backe home. Aliencat gave me the cool hat I'm wearing - thanks, Aliencat!

Crap, it seems LEGOworld in Holland (my fatherland) was a lot more exciting (and AFOL filled) then the one in Norway (the country I live in now).
