AFT SG-1: Exploring the world in a miniature park

Two years ago friends and I visited a miniature park with buildings from all over the world. I was told to bring SG-1 with me for the pyramides. Especially Daniel had great fun with them, trying to translate the hieroglyphs.
Here are finally the pictures! The Torchwood team had fun too, they went to the fortresses and old castles and such. I'll post them another day.

Click the cut for all the pictures!

By then Jack was tired and didn't want to go exploring anymore. It was a very hot day, over 30 °C, and no shadow anywhere.

This is fantastic! The structures look very authentic and most of the pictures as well. I really like them!

The second one with the pyramid and the ones with Akropolis look best. Great play with the perspective. :)

Wow! What's amazing to me is that you were allowed to get close enough to touch! Okay, how is Daniel staying up on the pyramid? LOL

I kept waiting for someone to shoo us off but it did not happen ;)
There were only a few miniatures that were reachable from the walkways though. When they were meters away on a meadow of course we did not get to them. We did not step over the fence.

I put his hands into the crack. Surprisingly, it held!

Thanks! We had great fun that day. It was very hot and no shadow anywhere. I asked about it and they explained if there were trees, they would need to get off the fallen down leaves all the time. Therefore, no trees.

I love tiny cute buildings like that. One day I'm going around making a picture post of all the other buildings without figures.

Thank you! We had such great fun that day. The miniatures were in the right size. I love tiny buildings. I have many more pictures without figures, I should post them too.

Must be fun working in such a park and building these things!

Yeah, they were the perfect size, thank you!

Oh wow!! That is SO cool. I bet you had a blast there. I love that the pyramid had hieroglyphs on the side of it. :D

It looks like minature parks are made for people with action figures. Beautiful photos! I'm waiting for the second part with Torchwood figures :)

[identity profile] dieastra.livejournal.com 2016-03-14 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, they made them especially for me LOL
I've always enjoyed miniature parks, way before I started with figures. I just love tiny things that are an exact image of big things.
Right, I should stop chatting and work on the Torchwood pics! I have four sets of pictures (mine and friends) to choose from. No easy task!

Good luck with getting through them all!

Yes, there's something cute about little things :)
