Hi, I'll be visiting Billund in Monday and Tuesday of the next week (4 and 5 of September), maybe I'll get there one day earlier, after that I'll go to Copenhagen.

(...) I'll make sure to check it out, do they have old sets ? (...) I wrote down the names and will visit those places. Is it worth to take a train and go to Odense ?

(...) We were there the weekend of 19.-20. of August, and there was a great _sale_ there.

Hi, We were there several years ago now, but if you have the time, walk (or drive) a few blocks to the air/space/Faulk (spelling probably wrong, means emergency but was a guy's name) museum "next door". Its quite nice, and fun as well, and takes (...) (24 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.dk, lugnet.legoland.billund)

Hi Again, Also, it is not clear if you are driving or on the train. The trains were quite frequent between Arhus and Cobenhavn via Odense. Lingtog (Lighting train) or others, probably newer ones by now, are FAST. Also, I think there is a new bridge (...) (24 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.dk, lugnet.legoland.billund)

Mark: (...) Things have changed a bit since then. (...) Falck (...) I am almost certain that the air museum has moved to Helsingør (north of Copenhagen). (...) They have a nice cathedral there. (...)

  Re: Going to Billund
 
Mark: (...) The Danish trains aren't that fast - you'll never get to go faster than 180 km/h - but you can get from Billund to Copenhagen in three hours (you need to take a bus to Vejle and catch a train there). (...) Strøget (...) Apparently it was (...) (24 years ago, 30-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.dk, lugnet.legoland.billund)

(...) I don't speak either language but I did went to Gamla Stan in Stockholm so I think Jacob might be right. :) (...) I was thinking about taking a boat to see the bridge from Denmark to Sweden, I'm curious as an engineer. Leonardo (24 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.dk)
