Some places I like in SL.

Okay, for my first significant post, I thought I'd cover a handful of my favorite places in Second Life.  One of the things that has kept me entranced with Second Life is the shear creativeness of so many of its residents.  Among the actual art created, as art, there are environments that can only be described as artistic.  Places that are just wonderful to look at, and explore.  Other places are fun because of what, or who, can be found there.  You can only list a handful of such places in your personal picks in Second Life.  So one of the reasons I started this blog was to showcase places I thought merit a visit.  So, to that end...

First, a place owned by a dear friend, but that may be closing due to lack of traffic.  A full adult SIM devoted to fun for all, but with a tongue in cheek transgender pirate theme.  Pair A Dice.  Here is a bird's eye view, and the SIM can be found at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Pair%20A%20Dice/202/78/23.
If you imagine it somehow pirate related, you can probably find it here.  A modern yacht with theatre, bed rooms, VIP lounge, dance floor, etc. etc.  A governor's mansion with hidden cellars, a secret pirate cave, ancient temple, grave yard, stables, yadda yadda.  You can spend quite a long time just exploring this huge place.  And if you are looking at the picture above and a little confused to scale, yes, that yacht is over 100m long!


Then there is Ossus, this is Role Playing parcel on the mainland.  PG and intended for a group of players.  So if you visit, be polite and don't interfere with anyone or anything.  But it is amazingly well done.  It is Star Wars themed, and from my somewhat scanty knowledge of that mythos reasonably accurate.  It can be found at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Brazos/50/138/40.

Last but not least, a place where you can feel like some sort of celestial spirit lost in the virtual cosmos.  Little Kasiopaya has several discrete environments that allow you to literally walk among the stars.  Worth a visit just to look around and enjoy the vista, and a great place to take a close friend for a long romantic walk and maybe a cuddle.  Rated Mature, again, dress appropriately and please be kind to others!  You can find this wonderful place at  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hot%20Midsummers%20Night/54/127/1151 .

Hope you check out and enjoy at least one of these places.
