SL Destinations: Museum Island

Hello & Welcome Exploring Enthusiasts!

Today’s post brings us to the beautiful and elegant Museum Island by Carlolello Zapatero.

 

There are 21 replicas of the world’s richest architectural and historical landmarks of the Mediterranean.

 

These ancient wonders are a collection from across France, Iraq, Egypt, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Jordan, & Babylonia of long ago.

 

Maps and Directories can be found at the entrance and along the paths as you saunter over the bridges & landscapes warmed by carefully placed sunlight.

 

The Textures used on these ancient masterpieces are phenomenal.
The builder took great care in all details, especially with the shadows showing precise depth and realism.

 

Each monument will have a board in front, stating the origin and pertinant information of the RL artifact.

 

We recommend the 2 automated tours set out.
1 is a walking tour for you and a companion. It will walk you thru the entire Isle not missing one square inch.
It’s really fun to do and if you are like me and Revan, You will try to do it a few more times LOL

 

The second is a boat tour that can hold up to 4 avatars. (We had a friendly avatar join us lol~ Hello Morgan Darkrose!)
This tour will encircle and weave around and through the island to get another perspective of all its beauty.

 

We hope you enjoy as we have, This sim has been a favorite of mine for 2yrs and counting, Its a dbl thumbs up approval rating ❤
Take care until we read again ❤

SL DESTINATIONS: Balloons, Balloons & Summer! Yay!

Welcome Aboard!
Here’s an informative post to some great photogenic and interactive places in second life.
what better way to start the 1st day of summer than in a balloon trip touring beautiful and scenic destinations.

We will spotlight 2 sims for you… Read on to see how wonderful these were made!

 Our first excursion brought us to Lula, Where there is a small parade of popular shops that look more like a quaint European town nestled in rolling hills.

The Stationary Balloons here provide a very nice aerial view of the sim.

Sitting at a table in the town square did not feel like a sim just for shopping but more like you have transported into a
Beautiful old village in southern france.

When You visit this picturesque sim do wander the grounds, You will find many pose balls for couples and nooks for spending
time with your favorite people.

Here is your Taxi to Lula : http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Lula/119/107/34

 

Having caught the bug for ballooning our next port of call was The Island of Shalott, Where you may take a tour of the sim
in a steampunk style balloon or use any of the other routes of transportation such as Horse & Cart, Boat, or Train.

Although the sim is based on Norse legend, There are steampunk elements thruout and even wheeled elephants to ride through
The beautiful garden, lol

Please be sure to click and receive the notecard from Janetland Laboratories explaining more about the sims past from 2007,
to its present and future projects. It is a very relaxed educational place as well as entertaining.

They even provide a cafe in the air, You may access the TP via the Oval Museum just off the RR tracks.

Or a palatial Home with a Secret Garden to explore in seclusion..

SL Destinations: The Road Trip Through The Unknown

Welcome Friends!
I wanted to tell you about a destination or activity that is full of fun!

MrGodai and I went on a road trip on one of the many scenic routes available in SL., The road we chose was Route2, in the Ethmia sim.

Well rested we left the motel, and headed to The Silver King Grill – Diner & 50s style drive-in for a meal.

leaving the motel, fresh crisp morning air on our faces…ready to go eat and hit the road!

AND THEN!, That was officially our starting point… *at Ranunculus (125, 206, 32).

 

We saw several interesting characters, mysterious towns, & beautiful castles along the way.

 

and encountered some Sim crossing funnies along the way lol.
