Yesterdag (Sunday 26 August) I was finally fit enough to go on a long awaited trip to the Efteling with my brother Hans. We arrived around eleven and stayed until nine-ish. It was awesome:-) For your viewing pleasures:
Here we go...
First: the fairytale forest, meet the Troll King:
... and Rapunzel.
Tom Thumb is trying to steal the giant's boots...
On to DreamFlight...
We fly through the Magical Wood and see fairies and trolls:
After the relaxing magical rides, now it's time for the real stuff: getting ready to fly through the dark at high speed on BirdRok. It's awesome, we went again at the end of the day and again after that;)
Kodak-moment: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah:
The Pagoda takes you up for a view of the park:
The latest addition to The Efteling: The Flying Dutchman, you have to be all grown up to go on that ride;)
I love the details on every single ride (and the path that leads you to it...):
After that amazing boatride our stomachs deserved a reward: mmmm
Many years ago, when my babybrother first went to The Efteling we took a picture near this sign. Obviously he has grown a lot since then. (Link to original:)
Time to get wet: the PiraƱa:
(I totally took this picture to show you Hans got wet, no other reason u-uh, no sir;)
Big Mouth Gijs will take care of your garbage:
Even the toilets are in style:
Dinnertime, we had the Big Mouth Gijs menu:
More pretty details:
Score:
Want to see more? Here are pictures from my brother's point of view:)
