I took very few pictures, mostly details of faces and pigeons, plus a couple of other things. That, and lots of pictures of the map. The dots ended up working a little different than I had expected. For the first two days at the park, the Legoland (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.events.brickswest, lugnet.general)

Well, since Brickswest is run a little differently (every MOC on display isn't judged for a contest) I actually didn't have any creations involved in any prize-awarding situations, so the X would be zero! I decided to give other people a (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.events.brickswest, lugnet.people)
