We spent Christmas with our niece and her family. On the long sideboard is a Lego village with a number of different buildings including shops, a fire-station, hotel, etc. Although you can’t see it here, there is also an Eiffel Tower on the right.
Our boys had a lot of Lego and spent many happy hours playing with it and creating all sorts of things. It seems to be one of those toys that never loses its appeal.

I bet it took a long time to build that Lego village. Sometimes I think Legos have more appeal for adults

@JudyEv we have a tv game show here that's called Lego Masters and teams compete with some extravagant Lego creations. It's unbelievable some of the things they make. Does Vince come up with some elaborate Lego creations?

@Marilynda1225 He and a mate made a pile driver once. The real ones are used in ports. Theirs drove a matchstick into a lump of plasticine. A lead fishing float was the actual 'driver'.

I played with Legos as a kid, and both of my children played with Legos as well. I'll be honest, I would still play with Legos now as an adult if I had any in the house to play with!
There is a huge Lego store at Disney World where you can buy just about any set imaginable. My son wants me to buy him a Star Wars Lego set of the Millennium Falcon that costs nearly a thousand dollars!

@Fleura Oh yes, I’ve used eBay quite a lot for finding good deals!

@JudyEv Lego is not just for children. Lego has a Lego Certified Professionals program for adults who creates architecture models, sculptures and mosaics and showcase them to appreciators at exhibitions.

My sister and I had Legos as children and I remember having so much fun playing with them building different things.

Years ago one of my roommates used to ask for Legos for birthday and Christmas presents. He had half the garage taken up with them.

@JudyEv 
My friend is almost 20 years younger than me. I felt like his dad every time I went shopping for Lego sets for him.

I like the billboard on top of the hotel (I guess it is).

This is most beautiful Judy.
When my son was small he loved Legos and won a Lego competition.

This is big enough now to look like it's part of the decoration.
