I don't speak a word of English (embarrassing really, since I work for TLC...) and don't have any trouble at all when I am there. Although it never hurts to (...)

I just read through lugnet.legoland.billund, but didn't see any mention of the Legoland Hotel, so I'll take pictures and write up a review. It's pricy, but (...)
