🚨Unsolicited Life Update🚨 From October 3rd, I will be joining the team at Walt Disney Imagineering. Yes, this means I will be moving to Paris. Sí, my French has room for improvement. No, I don’t have any free tickets. Jokes aside, this is a childhood dream come true!

Here it is: your first (PR approved!) sneak peek into the LEGO Factory Adventure! Motion base, trackless vehicles. State of the art technology that turns each rider into a bespoke LEGO Minifigure. Expect to hear a LOT more about this attraction on my feed(s) in the near future...
