Hi Nicole,

welcome to the forum from the Netherlands.

My kids (3 and 6) have their own playmobil to play with. My oldest son prefers the Pirates and Police. My youngest anything with wheels on  ;D
But my Playmo-stuff is all my own; although the kids are allowed to play with some of it from time to time - under strict supervision, naturally  :-[.

Anyway - I think it's great fun watching children play with it - whatever their age  :lol:

Hello, Nicole ...  :wave:

And, a BIG welcome from warm and beautiful Fort Lauderdale.
(I'm in Florida this week, but I'm usually in the United States Virgin Islands.)

As I'm sure you know, we have our own "mini-Zirndorf" here in Florida. When we're in Fort Lauderdale, I'm only about an hour away from the Playmobil FunPark/Store in North Palm Beach Gardens. (Interestingly, I probably only visit about once or twice a year.)

Looking forward to seeing you here at the Playmofriends forum.

All the best,
Richard

:wave: hi kelly.
welcome.
do you still have that house near zirndorf?
45 minutes should be something like 60km (40miles) - not an impossible task to dig a tunnel.
think of what it could be, to go inside playmobil's i&d department at night, when everyone is asleep, and then report to us what new sets are being developed...  :yup:

LOL--yes, my grandmother still lives in Erlangen (as does most of my extended family), so a tunnel is distinctly possible! lol!
Nicole :)

And I've never been there!  We're north of Tampa Bay and don't usually head that far south!  I'm working on convincing my husband that we need to take a vacation down that way...I'm thinking the Keys with a stop at the Funpark! ;)

Unlike Zirndorf, it's not worth a special trip. However, as a "stop" on the way to the keys makes sense. Especially since it's close to both the Turnpike and Interstate 95.

That's what I gathered--we went to the "Funpark" at the Florida Mall before it closed and I was disappointed, frankly.  I had expectations of an indoor, smaller version of Zirndorf...or at least something FUN for the kids to play in, but it was really just a store with several small play areas.  But, if/when we head to the Keys, I will definitely be stopping at the one in Palm Beach!
