babbacombe model village

we went to babbacome model village back in May (!) and i took loads of photos.

so to celebrate the fact i’ve finally got round to posting them, here’s a day dedicated to them

the place is just amazing.  you could easily spend half a day there.

it’s just great !

the attention to detail is spot on

and there’s always something to spot wherever you look like this car shop of movie cars

through to natural blending in with created (real trees in the background in the distance)

and annoying things like roadworks outside the holiday village

or confused toilet visitors

and nudists (that’ll cause havoc with your google ads, sorry!)

and who’s this ?  it’s hairy hat man, my favourite letter shaped character

great to see a line of bollards

and a traffic disaster

the sense of humour even extends to the toilet sign (which was full sized – actually the sign and toilets were full sized)

they were building an olympic stadium for 2012

signage to hel

and this brilliant load of runners containing various characters.

and on the subject of comedy characters …

in the “world of favourite characters” they had this Matrix recreation which contained a no-dogs sign.

what a brilliant place.  go and visit.  now.
