Oops - I should have been clearer here... Since LEGOLAND employs Model
Citizens, akin to Wal-Mart Associates, I referred to the good natured woman
at the entrance gate to the parking lot as an MC. You see lots of signs
around the park for "MCs Only" which are access gates to rides, backs of
shops, employee entrances, etc. so I have the vocabulary down now.
Oh, man - yeah, it's 100 times better in person. That's why I was so
surprised when I saw Miniland. I thought I was prepared by reviewing
pictures here and such, but there's still lots of room for personal
interpretation and enjoyment. Please set aside some browse time during your
upcoming nuptual event there...
...a few pics are forthcoming...
