Today is the last day of the LEGO Sphinx build at the ROM. There has been a lot of progress and it’s been great to have seen so many of you out to see the Sphinx near completion, and to join in on the other LEGO activities on this weekend.
Other LEGO activities? You bet, but first, let’s update you on the Sphinx. This is where we are now:
