Went to the Efteling on Thursday, July 31; here are pictures of some of the fun things me, sister in law G. and darling nephew R. did in that themepark (Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands)


First up in the fairytale-forrest: waking up the trollking in his tree


Watching Rapunzel hanging her long braid from the tower


The dragon protecting his treasures was a little scary;)


Just like the wolf trying to get in the house of the seven little goats.


But that candy house of the witch that caught Hansl and Gretl was pretty cool!


The trash-eating dude was to be approached carefully though:)


A new addition to the fairytale forrest was the story of the Emperor's new clothes! (Aunt J. loved this:)


Listening to the stories of the old tree, who had a lot of animal friends hiding in his roots and branches who added commentary.


The train on the kid's playground was the best, especially when mummy was running to keep up:)


We also loved chilling on the boatride (in the background the Pagoda, which was too high in R.'s opinion;)

But driving your own car was right up his alley! (Although the old timers were on top of a track you did have to steer them yourself (aunty J. therefore requested that mom G. would sit next to R. for assistence *g*)



The souvenir bubbleshooting gun was a big hit \o/


As were the dinnerboxes, nom!

What a great day!
