Description:
The old Cypress Gardens theme park in Winter Haven Fl. was sold to Legoland and it opens Oct 15. Little background from their website.
Ole Kirk Christiansen started making wooden toys in his small workshop in Billund, Denmark in 1932. Two years later, Ole Kirk decided upon a name for his toys and his workshop - LEGO®, a contraction of the Danish words 'leg godt,' meaning 'play well.' Coincidentally, it was later learned that LEGO in Latin means 'I put together' or 'I assemble.'

Jeeze Russ, I hope the Roller Coaster in the background isn't made of Legos!
