This afternoon I have explored and enjoyed a new installation on LEA15 by Storm Septimus, called: ‘Failure to Thrive – The Gray Child‘. A wonderful, magical, place in a globe/sphere, filled with scenes and objects on water. Since it is built in a globe the artist strongly advises to use windlight ‘Places Las Legunas’ and…

Garden of Eden
Tonight I spent quite some time in a lovely – new to me – place called: Garden of Eden. According to the information this gorgeous place is inspired and built after the paintings of Thomas Cole ‘The Voyage of life’ and ‘The Expulsion of The Garden of Eden’ and once you have seen those paintings…

Paleo Quest – How I got eaten by a plant and killed by spiders…
A few weeks ago Linden Lab launched their new interactive game Paleo Quest in Second Life and today I finally got in the right mood for some old fashioned exploring and asked my friend Pepys to join me in this adventure. Because I am 1) not good in games/quests and 2) these things are always…
Coobs and Caity – The Dragon Whisperers
It was a warm, slow, summer evening and Coobs and Caity went for a nice walk in a quiet and peaceful Vineyard, on a sim far away. They chatted and occasionally had some silent moments, enjoying the environment and letting the busy day behind them. Coobs suddenly stopped. ‘I hear something’ he whispered ‘be quiet!’, …

Girls Night Out : Wipe Out!
After our previous ‘Girls Night Outs’ in which we went horse-riding and kayaking, we thought it was about time we had another field trip with some action, drinks and chats! So this time we decided to go surfing, a fun sport and so easy in SL – compared to the RL version! We (Becky, Kerena,…
Summertime ramblings and Junk
For me summer always really starts after 7 August. Of course technically it starts earlier, but I can always really start to enjoy the weather once I’ve dealt with some sad anniversaries in July, and then the last being 7 August, the day my Mom passed away. Yes, that is 14 years ago, but still….
Eight
Today was my 8th rezday, and although I usually don’t celebrate with parties and such – I always find rezdays somewhat special. I am silly like that. This year I got spoiled so much, with lovely gifts from dear friends…I’ve gotten many surprises today, and am thankful for all of them! Giftcards (Ooooh, shopping-spree to…

Electrobit City – ‘You’ve died, and have been thrown from this reality! ‘
Those of you following me and my adventures on this blog know I am a terrible gamer. I just cannot play video games that require moving, shooting, running and escaping even if my real life would depend on it. I do like how it all looks though and I guess that’s my problem: I love…
It takes all kinds to build a community in Second Life: Basilique hits 2000 member milestone
Originally posted on Canary Beck:
InnocentlyWicked Resident, a 4-week old avatar who describes herself as: “young and I just want to have fun’, surely didn’t imagine she’d be winning Caitlin Tobias’s inventory of poses from her store Pose O’Clock, when she accepted our invitation as Basilique’s 2000th member. 2000 members might not sound like much in comparison to some in…
#TBT – A Goodbye to The Trace
Originally posted on Cait's World:
The Trace is, without doubt, the most featured sim on my blog. I have in the past 1, 5 year been a regular visitor of this wonderful place and was always excited when the seasons changed, as Kylie Jaxxon – the lovely owner – has such an elegant and…
Apple Island, a raw exploring trip
By accident, while browsing the Marketplace for a necklace, I hit a ‘visit this item inworld’ button and since the viewer popped up the landmark I thought I might as well go see the item inworld! The store I was browsing on MP was Imeka and once I teleported over inworld, I ended up in…
Ironwood Hills, what happened behind those rusty gates?
Of all my big plans to visit the SL12B regions this week, and blog about them, nothing happened. What did happen was too much real life, taking up all my time and energy and took away the inspiration to explore and write for some days. And still a bit. All will be fine, it is…
Machinima, how about adding some life to your blog!
Originally posted on SL Blogger Support:
Yes. I am going to talk about machinima, or: short online videos you can produce when in Second Life. Social Media as a whole is a very visual world. Pictures win from text, videos win from pictures. This does not, by all means, imply you need to stop writing…
