Over 300 = 250

it DID seem like more, but it wasn't

i guess it's the biggest to date.

it was neato.

Clo - you probably have had enough fun already! So you did not miss much!

Waiting to get in was half the fun.
It was great to see so many mini's and the look on peoples faces when driving by a line of us stretching down the block. I think I even saw some SUV driver display a hint of wanting to simply drive over all of our little cars.

First, the school...I counted about 55 MINI's! Then, the drive to Paramount. I have NEVER seen so many smiles or been asked so many questions about the MINI in a single day ever! Totally awesome! Some some real nice classic MINI's too.

Let's not forget those of you that drove from as far away as Lake Tahoe to hang out with us...very cool!

As far as the movie goes, I enjoyed it. It was a whole lotta fun, and marky brad was in it too! Hey, 4 frames counts in my book!
