Small Destroyer (Destroyer Escort)

After watching "Dogfights" on The History Channel, I was inspired by the ships in the battle to invade the Philippines. So I made my own destroyer escort.

Camper Trailer and Modification

Here is LEGO Camper that is an actual set, but I included a bike trailer and some small modifications.

The completed Camper Vehicle and trailer.

A simple modification was made to hold the fishing pole.

The trailer

The tools rack and cabinets


This is how the bike locks are designed to hold the bikes in place. 


A chain is used to hold the bikes from the handlebars. 

Using simple bricks with studs on the side to attach the side panels and back bumper

A simple modification was made on the bottom of the camper to attach the trailer.

This restaurant is very unique:

2. They only serve lobsters

3. They freshly fish their lobsters at dock adjacent to the restaurant

Fire Truck

Here is a Fire Truck with similar features you find in most of the other LEGO City fire trucks: Movable, extendable, and rotatable ladder, opening cab, and compartments. Here, the fire truck must put out all the heavily burning candles on the Christmas tree. Be careful on your own Christmas tree!

LEGO Christmas Decoration Gallery- Part 4

Here are some more Christmas Decorations.

The downtown city.
Many activities take place here.



All the buildings are lit because of Christmas.

The tallest building is the most lit because it has so many windows. The town looks normal...

not knowing of danger ahead by Ninja Kai and Ninja Cole.


On the other side of town is a bike race to the Christmas tree.

Kids have opened gifts already. The bikers are late!
Meanwhile, Secret Agent Chase deals with a classic problem.... chasing on top of a train.

He needs to keep going.. The Tram is on his tail. 

Oops... Luke Skywalker needs to pull himself up soon. 

Hot dogs... Ice Cream (In the winter?!?!?) Refreshments for all of these actions? 



Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the One Brick at a Time Blog. Come and enjoy the Christmas fun.

LEGO Christmas Decoration Gallery- Part 3

Here is more of the decorations.

During Christmas... people are working to find shiny rocks that will go well as ornaments of a tree. So far... No luck.

Across the hill is these modern houses.

Nowadays, there are incidents where burglars steal packages from the post office that is delivered to your house.
"HEY! COME BACK WITH MY EXTRA TOILET SEAT!"

People also go skiing and snowboarding. Looks like player 2 is going to lose.

Round 2: Similar, but player 2 is back in the game.

Player 2 smiles while the others are behind.

"Can I get in the helicopter... I'm scared of heights."

Do you want a Christmas tree? Make sure that you have a cart to take them home. 
Here's what's going on the other side of town:



Christmas dinner...yummy....It looks like the cow got away from being beef steak, meatball,  or sausage...

while the blacksmith inside forges knives, maybe this cow isn't so lucky.

LEGO Christmas Decoration Gallery- Part 1

Here is part one of my LEGO Christmas Decorations.

An overview + the hanging cloud tree.


Sitting on the highest, the king dresses in disguise to visit the village.
The court Jester doesn't know the king's secret mission, and announces the presence of the king loudly through a trumpet.
The queen watches him leave."Oh dear. The court jester ruined the moment."


What's going on?




In a nearby kingdom. A trader awaits on a camel.

Stay tuned for more decoration stories!
