Updates have been a little slow lately, apologies!

Of course, life in Efteling goes on, and the Negen Pleinen Festijn is in now in full swing.  As mentioned in a previous update, much of the entertainment is the same as last year, with a couple of new additions.  Here are all the colourful characters getting ready for a night of entertainment:

And here’s one of the new shows which you can enjoy outside of the Droomvlucht at Ton van de Ven Plein:

In other news, Breda will be playing host to Redhead Day 2014 from Friday 5th-Sunday 7th September (more like Redhead weekend!).  To announce the event’s theme which is ‘Wonderland’, 50 redheads from across the Netherlands met at Efteling to compete against each other on Joris en de Draak.  Which resulted in this interesting photo:

That’s a lot of redheads! And thanks to Megan Mawer for the info on this interesting event 🙂

And last of all, Aquanura in the morning?!

Yes, Efteling are promoting their evening shows of Aquanura by putting on a small show throughout the morning until about 12 noon.  It has its own melody, and at the end the audience are told about Aquanura and when they can see it.  Quite a nice way to wake the park up on a morning!
