< As soon as the next season opens, are we slowly started to prepare with a part of the adjacent woods. A big Harbour had to be created and also the miniature of the Kremlin buildings was planned to be placed. But unfortunately this planned expansion was made impossible by a local environmental-Committee, and there were no expansions allowed anymore. For the next season, we had to look for another location to be able to exploit our miniature-town property. |
