I'm finally back home and upolading photos (I took a total of 1500 pics!) on my Flickr account. I found out that I have a couple that have to be deleted (inappropriate gesture - oops) in what I already have, so I also have to go back and check teh pics I sent out.
It's also a relatively good time for me to try to write some better notes - I posted most of my notes at about 3am or so, I wasn't inclined to write any detailed notes. I apologize for that, because there wasn't much going out, and I really didn't help. I'm going to fix that now.
Here's what I experienced at Brickworld...

And it's over...
What a great event!
Brickworld went off really well, and about 5000 public showed up to see what was going on. And yes it was crowded!
But it was also a lot of fun - there was a lot of meetings going on and a lot of social things happening.
A Cafe Corner building project resulted in a 19-story behemoth being one of the landmarks of the LEGO display (not to mention all of the Creator sets that were being shown)
There was MINDSTORMS Sumo and Indy 5.0 running, so there was cheering going on in the room from time to time - and it only added to the festive feeling of the event.
Awrads were given out for outstanding MOCs and people, including the youngest and oldest attendee.
And there was a lot more...that I will be talking about in the next few days.
Til then, take a look at the pics!

Brickworld wrapup: Thursday
It's 2 am now, and Brickworld is warmingup...
Was at the main room until 1 am chatting with almost everyone, including Michael Huffman, Felix Greco, Janey Red Brick, Chris Magno, William Hutchinson, and many others.
Also presented my event kit, the Brickworld micro train.
And built one art of the Cafe Corner multifloor set - and also put out some of my mdels .
The room filled with people with models and also other people curious to see what was happening.
And I was able to chat with someof the LEGO staff!
