1. Wow! I love it!

We just bought one of those modular deals. It is so dull and lifeless. I wish it was as cool as the mushroom house!

4. I like it

Actually, I love dome houses. I have a dream to someday build my own effecient, environmentally-friendly self-contained (solar panels, water system, etc.) dome house. I haven't thought about it in awhile. Maybe someday I will.

8. Oooh! I've been there!

Scouted it for a movie, but we didn't use it because it's TINY!

Amazing craftsmanship, though. I wonder how much it is. Probably 800K+.

9. 800K+? LOL!!! Try $5,000,000Cdn, $3,791,300 US dollars.

It's nice, but not THAT nice.

10. Holy Doodle!

It's sooo small.

Of course, it's Whistler, wich is already nuts, plus the 2010 Winter Olympics...

But $5M?! It's seriously probably about 1300s/f.

How much money do those Keebler elves need, anyway?!
