Miniaturwelt Wonderland

Higgins

Maybe some of you know about Miniaturwelt Winderland in my hometown - Hamburg.
It's an amazing project - a massive toy train full of different landscapes.

Over the years, it became the number 2 tourist attraction in Hamburg, only Reeperbahn tops them

Personally not a fan from most things Google is doing, they did now map the toy train over the course of some weeks and here are the results:

I would love to visit that if I ever make it Hamburg. I am a serious train nerd so I would be in heaven. I had a look at the Google map version yesterday. I love how you can go down to 'street level' and look at the details.

{[] make sure to get in touch with me if you make it!

Seriously, this is not only for train Nerds - Everybody seems to love it!
People who don't like it either have a heart of stone or are Dalton Fans!

Yeah, he needs to be put under the biggest train they have. Just the trainers sticking out like the Wicked Witch of the East in the Wizard of Oz )

The comedian Greg Davies jokes that at 6'8" he loves to visit Japan, because
while he's there he's not just a tall bloke but rather a storybook legend. He is
a Giant, a colossus among mortals. )

I remember a school visit to England when I was about 18. The boys I was spending the e most time with tended to be 6'2'' -6'3''. It was quite an experience for a young lad a to walking down a crowded street and you and your friends are a taller than everyone else. It's silly, but it helps your self confidence.

One of my best friends is 6'7'', thin and blond. His two brothers are just a little shorter, but they all look alike. One of the brothers visited Nepal, where he experienced kids gawping and laughing at him )
