(...) One dirty little secret, IMHO.. there are way too many police, just like LEGO town sets. There are police everywhere and I think in a lot of cases, they are harassing otherwise innocent citizens. The ratio of police to others is well more than (...)

(...) yes. Pay extra for the better parking, it is worth it in a big way to pay another 3-4 dollars to be a lot closer. Or do you mean how to avoid paying to park altogether? Well, there is a costco about 1/2 mile away by foot that has a large lot. (...) (26 years ago, 10-May-99, to lugnet.legoland, lugnet.legoland.california)

I'm just back from LLW. Here's a quick resume: 1. No Episode 1 sets in sight. 2. All '99 rides up and running, except the water-chute one by the house (June apparently) 3.
