We did not see Orki at all that day. LAME!
Trust me, no one wanted to see Elissa get attacked again more than me. Well, maybe Robb...

What the hells an Orki? Or did you mean Yorkie? As in a Yorkshire Terrier. Cause seeing one of those attack Elissa would make for hilarity personified.

This is Orki.
He spent a lot of time attacking Elissa on our previous trip. Sadly this event was not repeated.

Today we hit two parks - Sommerland Syd and Legoland.
Sommerland Syd isn't a very big park, but it seems like a nice place for locals to spend an afternoon. It's mostly a water park with a few rides. Seems like a perfect place for a school outing, etc.
They are also home to the world's first Vekoma Invertigo which oddly enough was great!
Next was Legoland Billund which is the "original" Legoland (well, after they left Hansa Park) and it's probably the nicest of them all. It's at least bigger than the other two I've been to and seemed to have the most attractions.
Their "Robocoaster" ride was very impressive being all indoors and not only allowed you to select the level of intensity, but also allowed you to select what maneuvers your Robocoaster arm did.

| Here is a "never in America" type of moment. Let's just take a look at this for a second. These are kids baking bread over an open fire. Now, let's just think about this concept from the American lawyer's perspective. "So you want to have a bunch of kids stand around an OPEN FIRE and give them something RAW that could make them sick if they eat it? SURE!!! Let's put that in our park!" (This is why I like going to European parks!) |

This is proof to Cedar Fair that you can keep rides open in a drizzle!
Anyway, Great photos as usual! I need to go on a TPR trip sometime!

I wish we had awesome water ride themes like that here in the states. I want something more than Happy Fun Laughing-Place themes sometimes. What ever happened to good old cannibalism anyway?
