****My son and I went to help set a world record yesteray***

Near the olympic stadium in Montreal right now, there's a group trying to built the longest Lego Millipede in the world (they have to do it 1,7 Km long I think). They have a week to do it (it started last sunday) and my son and I went yesterday. Everybody can go help built millipede parts to beat the record. In one Millipede body parts for exemple, there is 1500 blocks (all the block are 8 pins bricks). Helped by a lady that was alone we built one part. It was cool and also cool to know they'll probably beat the record cause there was a lot of people to help em. They were also giving free NBA legos for the kids and Bionicle posters and comics.

We may go again later today to see where they placed our part on the millipede.
