We wish you a great time as we had, and hope this is a nice addition to your fun list.
Bonjou! Konmen to yê? (Hello!, How are you?)
Today we bring you a bit of early 20th Century Americana.
A wee bit of Louisiana flava called New Toulouse. This region contains 2 sims, One is Urban and the other is Rural.
The city is modeled after New Orleans, and is bustling with Voudoun shops, Jazz clubs, Processions, Art & Cuisine, just
like the real thing.
The country or Bayou is where We settled, located on the 2nd sim, and we literally haunted it for days lol.
We really did enjoy the feel of this Swamp settlement.
Natural beauty filled this entire sim., From the birds & fauna native to this landscape, to the reptilian mascots that
occupied the waters.
The time period they emulate here is b’twix 1920-1925’s rural, When it was pure and simple country living.
Although Louisiana is very diverse, southern LA had 2 larger groups, Cajun & Creole.
Cajuns are French colonists who developed their own distinct lifestyle in the swamps and surrounding areas of South
Louisiana. Intermixed in these colonies were the Creole. Creole can mean anything from individuals born in New Orleans with
French and Spanish ancestry to those who descended from African/Caribbean/French/Spanish heritage.
It was a pleasant surprise to see them keep it authentic to the way folks would’ve Built Homes & Businesses, or decorated
their yards and houses.
We recognized African influences in the decor, no doubt brought by the freedom folks as they settled in communities.
I was tickled over The bottle tree that I have known through my own Geechi/Gullah heritage.
This custom originated in Africa., People believed that bad spirits could be captured in a bottle.
Legend had it that empty glass bottles placed outside, but near, the home could capture roving (usually evil) spirits at
night, and the spirit would be destroyed the next day in the sunshine. One could then cork the bottles and throw them into
the river to wash away the evil spirits.
Of course as time goes on meanings fade.
Not all Folk still believe in such things but the gesture of displaying old customs reminds us of whence we came.
Alot of decor also showed signs of Christianity or Voudoun beliefs
This sim is very fascinating, do check out the library and other informative areas to learn more.
We wish you a great time in Bayou country,
This sim is great for RP or to relax in the pretty sights & sounds.
Adyeu, Wa pli tar, Swinn-twa! ❤
(a Good-Bye, See you later,Take care!)

Hello Explorers!
Welcome to another post highlighting a sim we think you’d enjoy.
Ravenscroft is the home & creativity of Sir Musgrave Mondegreen and his partner Saryn.
The peaceful grounds have a romantic feel and is the perfect spot to relax in.
They graciously welcome the public to explore the grounds but do ask that visitors do not enter the Manor house unless invited.
This romantic Isle has areas to socialize, a leisurely tour by train, and a hidden tunnel with a room to spend time in.
(walk over the manhole cover at landing area to enter the tunnel).
When you make your way through the tunnel, the other end will bring you to the boat tour.
Jump on the boat for a quick ride and arrive at the Mer-Fountain just up the hill.
Take your time, look around at the cozy areas, Its very photogenic here.
Enjoy the serenity and surroundings.
Here’s Your Taxi-=> Ravenscroft
Hello Travelers,
We bring you a post on the mysterious and beautiful sim “The Sands of Time.”
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Sands%20of%20Time/185/191/22
This Beautifully landscaped sim is Home to Majilis Al Jinn.
The name of the sim can be translated as: The Congress (or the seat, the meeting place) of Spirits.
The Jinn are mythical beings of great power that exist somewhere between heaven and earth.
In western culture they are often thought of as Djinn/Jinni/ Genie, and are often the granters of wishes when found and released. In middle eastern culture, the Jinn are mentioned in the Quran as beings created by Allah, where men were created from clay, the Jinn were created from fire, and just like men, have free will, and the ability to choose to be good or not. The subject of Jinn in Muslim culture is today at least, often taboo, as they are often blamed for causing mischief on earth.
Majailis Al Jinn is an island reflecting the enchantment and the wonder from tales like 1001 nights, or even modern stories such as ‘Prince of Persia’. Here Western and Far East cultural influences can be found blended in.
Exploring this island, You will see The recess in the island’s center is sheltering a garden of wonders.
There are caves of Mystery under the palace, hidden alcoves to sit and cuddle, and even a sunken ancient temple.
When you visit this fabulous sim, Time is of no importance here, Stop and take time to enjoy this haven set on a vast ocean where Mystery & beauty is allowed to flourish.
Thank You for visiting this blog, Your support is appreciated. Stay tuned for another sweet find and Take Care.

Ahoy Shipmates!
This week sees the start of the Skull-n-Bones 3rd annual Pirate hunt ,
so the wife and I thought it would be a great opportunity for us to share one of our seafaring adventures from a few months back.
We made sail for the Black Spot Shipyard which is a series of islands and inlets set over 2 sims.
A vast array of pirate ships and galleons, all of which are for sale, line the harbour and docks.
Wooden walkways and paths lead to secluded areas with seating to take in the scenery and magnificent ships.
Torch lit corridors lead through the fortified docks, with cavernous rooms to explore.
Catch the boat tour which navigates around the ships and islands,
or if you fancy seeing the sights from the air take the flying broom or flying carpet tour!
You can rez your own ships or boats here and sail around to your hearts content.
So if you think the Pirate life is for you then this should be your first port of call.

Welcome Explorers,
In our latest adventure we find ourselves at the beautiful sim of Seven Veils.
Seven Veils is an immersive fantasy environment, set in lush vegetation,
Here the Woodlands flourish with Secret Coves, Castles and Vaulted Caverns.
Eire Statues and Guardians line the many flower laden glades and walkways.
While this is a superb spot for picture taking and relaxing, There is also a puzzle game to play around the sim.
The Garden Game is a clue-based puzzle that incorporates gathering and logic.
Your goal is to seek the seven Guardians and their Artifacts to collect clues and solve the current puzzle round.
The objective is discovering which Guardian committed which sin and what penance they suffered for their actions.
A Romanesque plaza with fountains, pool and performance area makes a perfect place to sit and take in the colourful surroundings.
I hope you enjoy this Garden Masterpiece as we have, Be well until we read again!

Hello SL Trekkers!,
Check out this Fun & Interactive destination spot in Edo Japan.
You can Race modern minibikes or vehicles of your choice through Ancient Edo Japan.
Whizz past Japanese castles and villages, as you ride the winding track.
Can you beat your friends in speed? (Like I beat the Brakes off Revan HAHA!)
These 2 sims are a great combination of old and new but they mesh well.
Theres are 50’s style gas stations, motorcycle shops, and traditional styled buildings selling items.
TP to the Grundge area for maximum chilling just under the race track next to a photobooth to play in.
There you can use the sandbox freely. It has a 3hr return, so no worries!
Have a bit of fun and get your Mugshots done.
You can find the mugshot booths Just below the bike’s starting point or in the 19Motorcycles shop.
It’s very laid back in Edo, you can walk around as a Samurai & fit in with the decor or ride out on Kawasaki Ninjas., The choice is yours.
Happy Riding & Thank You for stopping by!

Welcome Explorers!
Knock on Wood is a tiny inlet filled with Pretty vegetation, mist, benches, and cozy nooks.
Pose balls are littered throughout this mini forest, look up, some are even in the trees.
Ride in the boat that encircles the island, Play a game of logs with a friend…
Or pose on the elephant and say cheese 🙂
Don’t be alarmed of the strange clicking sounds and a glimpse of alien like ghosts…
As you wander through this water marsh you will be followed by tiny Kodama, which are Japanese tree spirits.
They are harmless and love for you to click on their heads…try it 😉
Trail along the walk way made of field flowers, It will lead to a well which drops into an undersea forest inhabited by
the Moomins.
The Moomins are the central characters in a series of books and comic strip by Swedish-Finn illustrator and writer Tove
Jansson. They are a family of fairy tale characters, who are white, roundish, & with large snouts that resemble hippos.
Although small, This destination has many more places to see and explore.
