Did you know that Lego originated in Denmark? I can’t believe we didn’t know this! It’s where it all started. The very first Legoland park opened in June 1968 in Billund, and sits just by the original Lego factory. As you may have guessed, we are huge fans of Lego and Legoland theme parks!

Each ticket was only £10 and although their photos onContinue reading “Standalone Farm, Letchworth Hertfordshire”
