What more can I say about Celebration V than "totally awesome". I had a great time and really enjoyed seeing old friends from CIV and CIII. The best part of the Vintage community is that no matter how much time goes by, you can walk up to each other and it seems like yesterday when you last talked to them. Overall, this Celebration event had been well organized. Though some of the lines were long, nobody seemed rude (at least to me) and the sites ie babes were very nice see, especially the Slave Leias.
My patches were a huge success. I came home with one patch, while the rest were handed out or traded for some cool swag during the event. I have enclosed some pictures of the event, as well as collectors who I met face-to-face for the first time.

The "infamous" room sales were very nice and as advertised some really "rare" stuff appeared on various beds. Though we were kicked off the 16th floor and relocated to the 2nd floor lobby, I had a great time and finally crashed in the early morning. Looking forward to Celebration VI.
