Event - Dinos in the sand ( Zandsculpturenfestival Middelkerke)

How to make adult get in back in touch with their inner 5 year old?
Easy: you show them dinosaurs!

Moments of dino tenderness

Before leaving for France we made a stop in Middelkerke (Belgian coast) to visit the annual festival for sand sculptures. This edition is inspired by the last Jurassic World-movie and really unleashes the kid inside every dino-loving adult.

First of all: it isn't the biggest edition ever, however it's worth every penny of the entrance fee. Artistry & emotion are in every detail of the lifelike and often pretty big dioramas. It's not just impressive fights, but also cute prehistoric family scenes cut out of mountains of sand.. because often we would simply forget that everything is made out of nothing else but sand. Just check out all those details. Impressive!  

All the pictures are on Flickr.
A video is on Clapper (the complete video) & on Instagram (however: cut short by IG)

You've got till September 11th to visit it yourself.
Because: how often can you eat an ice-cream at the foot of a volcano next to fighting dinosaurs?

Some sample pictures (the others are on Flickr).
