Lego Castle Time!

Okay, I've spent (wasted?) the better part of my Saturday building a tricked out Lego Castle - for the kiddos, of course! - complete with working drawbridge, catapult and secret hidden castle entrance underneath the waterfall that leads down a narrow passageway that ends up at a door with bars but there's no lock on it so you don't need a key to get inside!

I spared no (time) expense in making the exterior mountain/rock facade seem as rock-y as possible, and I even threw in some greenery to make it all nature-like.

You see, this castle was built into a "mountain" as to increase it's defenses. Also, check out the Han Solo in Carbonite figure inside the castle. Gotta love it!

Please allow the pictures to do the rest of the talking...but be sure to vote in the "How long until the kiddos sack the castle?" poll to the right when you're done!
