SL Destinations: The Water Lantern Festival

Well Hello There,

After a few weeks of intense exploring, We finally slowed down enough to do a post today. YAY!
There have been a flurry of events that have started., Some well advertised, some lesser known, but all definite gems.

We just had to tell you about this particular ‘must see’.

The Night Market, at The Water Lantern Festival.

It’s a magical event full of Asian-inspired goodies made by the many talented designers in secondlife.

At this time, They also have a fund raiser called “Love to the Philippines.”
The community is showing support for families affected by the Huge & Deadly Typhoon that ripped through the country.
You may donate to this cause by buying from a stall at the gate/landing area.

If you like to take photos, the venue is beautifully decorated, It made us go oooo-ahhh!

We dressed for the occasion and snapped some mementos.

The creative mind(s) that designed this venue made it interactive and fun for all.

Even thou you can wade through knee high waters, There are boats to row and float to each stall while you shopped.

Others had a great time at the popular noodle stand, If you could stand the wait for a free chair,  you will enjoy your bowl too lol

Check it out asap, It will only be around until Nov. 20th!

Around The World Blogger Challenge: “J”-JAKARTA

Halo Teman!
Saya berharap keluarga Anda Berbahagialah.
Adalah baik untuk melihat Anda. 🙂
(Hello Friends! I hope your families are Blessed. It is good to see you. :-))

Oh what a Wonderful & Busy place Jakarta is!
It’s the capital and largest city of Indonesia,
sorta like the equivalent of New York City.
There is such a contrast of nature and bustling city life here.
I’ve decided to pick the tranquility of nature to snap these pics.:-)

Influences from others make up the clothing history.
Styles of clothing came from various visitors.
People from China, Madrid, India, & the Javanese especially left their imprint.

What I am wearing is called a Kebaya.
A Kebaya is a traditional blouse-dress combination
worn by women in Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Burma, Singapore, southern Thailand.
It is sometimes made from sheer material(note my jacket),
and usually worn with a sarong or batik kain panjang,
or other traditional woven garment such as ikat, or songket with a colorful motif.

Bright, Bold contrasting colors are most preferred.
I went for pink green and yellows 🙂

Smoooches!

Thanks for looking, see you next post in Kenya!
