Thanks to my travels in Second Life, I am (almost) never bored in quiet weekends as this! Most of my SL friends are offline in the weekends, to spend time in this thing called Real Life. Me? I don’t have much going on in there, so I click the teleport-button and fly around in cyberspace…

The Docks – Originalia
A typical Saturday morning. While the washing machine and dishwasher were doing their jobs, I surfed around on the internet and read some forums (including of course the new LL one). More about blogs, forums, posts, ranks and off topic stuff later. Maybe! I went in world and visited The Docks! It’s a quarter…
Tableau
Tableau is the name of a very cool sim! It’s a sort of ghost town in the desert, filled with tumbleweeds and empty houses, in a western style! Colourful and detailed and fun to explore. I did it in sunset, to get that real desert effect :). I particularly loved the trailer park, which is…
Trainingnight, well…sort of!
Usually on the Wednesday evenings (22:00 CET) we have a recap of the grouptraining we had on the Monday. Last Monday we practiced for the upcoming CTF against the Yakuza Clan (mid March), which was great fun and very useful. Tonight Ratt had prepared a training in using the ‘specials’ in our swords, specifically when…
JE*Republic
Last night, on one of my tours, I went shopping at JE*Republic! Lovely shop, nicely built (not too small, so you can navigate easily, no stairs…hehe) and wonderful clothes and…. even better hair! I treated myself on a new hairstyle, short! Nice for fighting :) Oh, the little black dress on one of the pics,…
Solidea Folies & Salimar
I am not really sure if the creators/builders that made Salimar intended to give it that mediterranean feel it gave me, but if they did: very well done! It reminded me a bit of a little town in the south of France, Provence du Var, called Fayence where I have spent some wonderful summer holidays…
Un Jour
This morning, Sunday mornings are always lovely for exploring, I visited Un Jour. The landing point was a bit odd, on top of a huge glass greenhouse but once I jumped off, I discovered an amazing place! It is a shop, you can buy clothes (fantasy-style, very sweet), hats with floral toppings and skyboxes! All…
‘And whether pigs have wings…’
Ha. Odd title for a post, eh? It is a sentence from one of my favourite poems by Lewis Carroll – The Walrus and the Carpenter (from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872). How did I come to that? Well…I was flying and teleporting around and discovered a sim (Dysphoria) dedicated to…
Too creepy
In real life I am not at all into scuba-diving or snorkeling. I would rather jump from a plane with a parachute, than go deep-sea diving. I tried, honestly! I went snorkeling when I was on a holiday on the Maldives, because everybody kept on telling me how wonderful it was in the coral reefs…
Radio silence
So. This morning at 9AM (GMT +1) the official Second Life Forums went into stealth mode; you can still read the posts, but you cannot reply or post anymore. This is because LL is implementing a new ‘community platform’, which will replace the current blogs and forums. I can live without the forums for a…
Graves – What is your Kink?
Now, I am not known in SL for being kinky or into latex and stuff, but today I found a wonderful outfit at Graves. The store is mainly dedicated to the more kinky – leather/latex/sexy – outfits, but there are also outfits that cover your avatars body! Heh! Caity felt a bit techno…
Twomoons Island – MIASNOW
Not an ordinairy shopping trip on my Friday night! I went to Twomoons Island, because I was curious to see the skins MIASNOW makes and sells, with all kinds of colourful make-up layers! I was NOT disappointed at all! Twomoons Island is a great place to explore, too bad it was raining cats and dogs…
Saint Francis Church and Monastery
And now for something completely different! I visited the Saint Francis Church and Monastery, described in the SL Destination Guide as: ‘a serene and quiet location perfect for personal reflection, meditation, prayer, or a religious service. Enjoy the stunning beauty of this tranquil island and take time to meander through the lush surroundings.’ All true!…
Dynafleur
In need for some colours to brighten up my day…I found myself in Dynafleur. An art installation, with mysterious sounds and a transparent walkway through an incredible psychedelic tunnel! Super! Yeah, yeah…maybe a bit too colourful for some of us, but for me it was just a perfect break in the day! …
MB Creationz
If you like furniture with lovely details, silky or velvet fabrics and fluffy cushions..then MB Creationz is the place to go! Even when not in need for new furniture, this store is a wonderful place to amaze yourself…I really love the style and details of almost everything there is: fantasy or realistic sets of furniture,…
