Hovercraft
Perhaps one of our Polish readers can help fill in details, but over on LugPol they seem to be having a new round of the Brick Transport Tycoon contest, challenging people to build sea transports. M-longer weighs in with a great hovercraft ferry. Note how it opens up so that the vehicles it's carrying can be unloaded.

ø me ø my
Apparently LEGO has a relationship with the Rambøll Group, a Danish energy company. They're producing a microscale promo set of an offshore oil drilling platform. Don't get your hopes up too much; the last company promo, the Vestas windmill promo set did not go into general release. Thanks to Chewk for pointing out the photos.

Heritage
It's been a while since I've noted the ongoing Piece of Peace display of UNESCO World Heritage sites created by Kazuyoshi Naoe. Sukuizu has a nice gallery of images from this display, such as the Cathedral Metropolitan de Brasilia and the Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família.
