Legoland Windsor

Legoland Windsor is the best Legoland Park I have been to great setting and some original Legoland Rides like Haunted House Monster Party, Deep Sea Adventure, Hill Train, Legoland Express, and the best version of the Dragon I have done.

Legoland Windsor has a lot more to do compared to Legoland Florida and Legoland Dubai the other two I have done
They are both newer Lego parks which definitely have the modern Merlin approach.

The older original Lego parks seem a lot more organic and less budget.

Technically Legoland Florida the park itself has been around since 1936 as Cypress Gardens so was developed before it became a LEGOLAND park not sure how many pre exist still at the park from that era
 
BA cancelled our outbound flight to Billund meaning i've had to cancel our entire trip which is a shame. No reason given by them.

The park seems to favour a similar demographic to Windsor with the vast majority of attractions being either no or low height restrictions but they do have 2 coasters that are 1.2m and a 1.3m flat. Of course, they are very much the only theme park in the vicinity so it makes sense for them to have a broader demographic appeal.
 
Should Legoland Windsor install some sort of Skyride Cable Car system because it is a big park getting from the front entrance all the way to Mythica is not the easiest walk

Just curl up into a ball on the floor and ask for a shove. It's all downhill, you'll get there soon enough.

Failing that, fly.
 
AFOL's have been about in large numbers since I was a teenager...that long.

A number of them a bit weird, maladjusted landlubber pirates and the like.

Legoland is for kids.

They do not want the big thrill crowd in a kid park.
As I said there have always been adults playing with lego, but now it seems very big, a ton of adults (in their like 20-30's) are building lego say what you would like but it is a big thing (big enough to make lego have a large portion of sets going to their adult range)

If merlin decide to ignore them, I feel they will be missing a huge opportunity.
 
And as I said, there have always been lots of them.

A big thing, but also historically a big thing.

I know several from decades ago.

AFOL...big thing for many decades, and not just twenties and thirties, one of my mates still buys a lot of new sets "for the grandchildren".

Now, via social media, you see more of them...but that does not mean they were not there, in big numbers, in the past...just more visible now.

And grown ups just didn't video themselves back then playing with kids construction sets...unless it was Meccano.

Back on topic...

Legoland is very popular, and specifically for kids.

No adult style thrill rides for a reason...they don't want thrill seekers there, they cater specifically for smaller humans.
