If miniCourtney drove a minicar

A friend of mine brought to my attention (via Modern Marvels) there is a mini car (or micro car) museum in Georgia. After checking out the site, I think this is the one I'd drive. It reminds me of a bumper car, which I love!


This one also make me laugh .. it's a "camper"!


I really want to see someone get into one of these cars.

Here's the site of the museum, check it out. http://microcarmuseum.com/index.html
Which car would you drive?

Mr. Fox

Okay, so I didn't see the movie yet but I knew I'd love it. Why? The entire set is MINI! I saw a sneak peek/ making of on HBO before the film came out in theaters and was in love (it doesn't hurt that Wes Anderson directed this movie,.. so I already have a soft spot for his films, thanks to my boyf.) Here are some pictures of making of The Fantastic Mr. Fox




The next photos are from my friend's trip to NYC, a great window display ...
