But thanks for taking some pictures of the park and all the festivities.  That
poor skeleton committing suicide off that building...  He had so much to live
for.  By the way, has anyone figured out why Lego would build to this scale?
I mean if they built the miniland area to minifigure scale then wouldn't they
sell more sets?  And I don't really think their style is that popular with
Lugneters since I don't think I have ever seen anything with those types of
people in them.  So what's Lego doing?  Now I must go and make sure all of my
skeletons are living happy lives...
