(...) Tim, I live about 30 minutes from LL CA. And I used to live in Fremont, which is next door to NewarkL. Count on a 8 hour drive from one to the other. I don't know if the LEGO store up there is open yet, but there are two on you route to SD. (...)

(...) The tent sale will be on untill they sell out a majority of the old inventory. But I doubt it will last untill September. But you never know. I'll try and keep this thread updated. Mat (20 years ago, 15-Jul-04, to lugnet.legoland.california)

I stopped by the park yesterday and I saw a bunch of newly completed RV and motorhomes in the MBS. And for those of you haven't seen it, the NASA setup at miniland is well worth seeing. Mat (20 years ago, 15-Jul-04, to lugnet.legoland.california)

Also interesting that the figs are not traditional minifigs (or even JS figs). They appear to be larger than minifig scale. This picture shows what I'm referring to...
