Take a visit to Australia at the Pond

My SLover Boog and I recently enjoyed a fun evening of exploration at the Pond.

This finely detailed sim includes plenty of activities and recreates all that is best about the land down under.

There are plenty of places to hang out and meet new people, lots of amazing scenery and jaw dropping builds. There is a race track, a cuddle park and shopping.

A re-creation of the Sydney Opera house is amazing from the outside, but sadly, only the basement can be entered and explored.

While we were there we discovered an amazing and mind blowing art experience in the bottom of the Opera House. Lights, sound and color react to movements of avatars thru the space. Invite your friends, go into mouse look and fly around bumping into each other and enjoy the effect you have on the environment, and feel the effect it has on you, reminiscent of mind-altering drug experiences.

If you enjoy detail of construction and have some time go on a walkabout and explore, the Pond is a must see in Second Life.

Come see me at Parrot Bay

I am now dancing at Parrot Bay in addition to my job at La Rose Nui. I love the crowd at Parrot Bay, they are such a tight knit SL family. It’s a real honor to be a part of such a fun bunch of people. If you ever want to stop in and say hello to me, I work at Parrot Bay on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights between 7 and 9 pm SLT. Enjoy different themes, Sploder nights, dancing and shops out in the courtyard, admire the pirate ship in the harbor and take a hit on the gigantic bong in the club. The people are friendly and welcome new people, so stop in and admire the scenery, and as always, remember to tip your lovely dancers and DJ as they are working hard for your entertainment.

More on Lorelei’s adventures in Second Life coming soon. Until then.

House Beautiful Second Life

One of the most enjoyable things about SL for me so far has been setting up housekeeping. Boog Nishi and I rent a lovely house called Tales of Desire, and he and I are Lord and Lady of Desire.

The owner and creator of this spectacular house, Luminus, came over the other day and told us that what we thought was ours was not. There is a little stone cottage that connects the Tales of Desire house with the big castle in back that belongs to Luminus and Fran. Boog and I had been under the mistaken impression that this little stone cottage was ours, but Luminus informed us that it was not included in the rent. I had asked this question twice in IMd queries to the owners prior to renting the house, but had never gotten a response. Being an optimist I’d assumed the little cottage was part of the deal.

This new disappointing revelation involved some quick rearranging and a little sadness too, because now, privacy in our home is really at a premium. In fact there is really none to be found at all. But, the place is lovely, and we don’t want to leave.

So in search of a little privacy, I went on a curtain buying adventure. Eventually I settled on a set of amazing huge red flexi curtains that blow in the ever present SL wind. (I am now an expert on curtains in SL.) But before I actually bought the curtains, I also bought a new sofa and ottoman for our living room, and a nice “ohm” printed flexi curtain for the uncovered window in Boog’s room.

As soon as Boog and I got the curtains hung, we went on yet another shopping spree to Bits and Bobs, outfitting the area in front of the fireplace with new toys and adding a new set of dance balls.

Our home just gets sweeter and sweeter. Boog and I are loving each other, loving the home we have created together and loving our perfect world in SL. More updates on the adventures of Lorelei in Second Life coming soon. Until then…
