One of the events of the trip to Melbourne was the Brickvention 09 - a Lego convention hosted by the Melbourne Lego Users Group.
When they say there is something for everyone, they're not kidding! Even I got a kick out of a few of the exhibits. The best for me was a rock festival set up, with hundreds of Lego people watching. Back stage was a warm-up area, where you could see various legends rehearsing. Here's The Village People.
Here's DEVO!!
Of course there was a mosh-pit....
However my favourite?
Of course my other highlight was a crafty one. One of the exhibitors wore a cap he had decorated with Lego pieces.
He had sewn them on, and can change the pieces he wears as of course they clip on and off. Master 6 loved it; I was intrigued. Of course I am now making one for my son as a memento of the trip. I hope he likes it!

And of course, I want a closer look of that hat when you finish sewing it!
I'm loving the holiday pics. Good to see you guys having a great time. :D
I live in Melbourne and I still missed this one, How is that?
That's so cool! My nephews love lego but I've never heard of Brickvention!
