Plastic fantastic: Meet the adventurous LEGO couple who've travelled all over the globe taking STUNNING photos


comments

A globe-trotting couple who take holiday pictures of their travels around the world have hit the internet by storm - because they're made of Lego.

The miniature tourists, who carry a backpack, camera and map, have visited Scotland, England, France, Portugal, Spain, Denmark, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand and are currently snapping their way through Australia.

The plastic duo are the tiny Lego counterparts of real-life couple Craig and Lindsay Haggerty, both 31, from Scotland.

 

Craig said: 'I was thinking of things to get my girlfriend for her 30th birthday and I came across a little Lego camera.

'This gave me some inspiration - we like to travel as much as we can and when we visit a new city or go somewhere on holiday.

'Lindsey always has the camera for taking pictures and I carry the map and a bag with our things.

'So I made two Lego figures to represent us - Lego Lindsey with the camera and Lego me with the map and rucksack - and that was the first gift I gave her when we were in Paris for her 30th.

'You'd be surprised how long it takes to get some of the pictures just right, even the slightest breeze can knock them over, and we always need something at just the right height to sit them on.'
