BrickFest 2007 wrapped up on Sunday, but I’ve been so busy I haven’t had a chance to sit down and reflect. Well, here goes.

Highlights for me:

• Hanging out with all the great people in the extended LEGO community — both from The LEGO Company and fellow fans.
• The ride down with Caylin. I think I left my sunglasses in your glove box.
• MAX, Chinatown, and House of Louie with TBB’s very own Josh, world-famous Mike, and aforementioned Caylin.
• Having a minion.
• The new UCS Millenium Falcon in person.
• The singlest largest LEGO Castle display in North America, ever.
• Sessions standouts for me were LEGO Quality with Bjarke Schoenwandt and the future of LEGOfan.org with Kelly McKiernan.
• Lunch at Wendy’s with Steve Witt and The Usual Suspects.
• $1 minifigs from Bob Kojima and Paul Hetherington.
• MINDSTORMS NXT Sumo!
• Sharing a Mountain High Mudd Pie between two tables at Red Robin.
• Scratched and dented LEGO sets (no damage to LEGO inside) for 50% off at the Washington Square LEGO Store!
• Breann Sledge’s Bionicle creations.
• Nathan Proudlove’s completed Blacktron II
• The ride back to Seattle and post-BrickFest dinner at I Love Sushi with Dan Sabath and Dan Boger. Best sushi ever! Sorry you couldn’t join us, Pamela.
• Seeing all the great photos in the BrickFest group pool on Flickr — more than 2,700 photos so far!

Phew. That was all so fun I’m now miserably sick. :-D

Still, I can’t wait for the next major LEGO event I’ll be attending, NWBrickCon. See you all there! (You can read more about what NWBrickCon was like last year right here on The Brothers Brick.)
