RavKom 37,209,24 – Timless Underground is a very fine little dance club owned by Timeless Prototype, developer of the famous Multi Gadget. Come out and meet manager Moixe Grumby, and her partner Rane Mokeev and the other TU live DJs.

Oh, by the way: the club is in damage-enabled space, which adds an amazing edge to the feel…so behave yourself.

Spaceport Alpha 48,83,24 – Nobody who has an interest in astronautics should miss the spectacular International Spaceflight Museum. This huge multi-sim venue has interactive exhibits and full-scale, professional quality replicas of just about every real-life spacecraft that has ever flown.

There’s a large theater streaming NASA TV, too.
Maggie rates this one five-stars plus.

Caledon, Steampunk central

Filed under: Uncategorized — Maggie @ 3:33 am

Caledon 194,183,23 – While I do not always find every manifestation labelled “steampunk” appealing, The Independant State of Caledon is well wrth the time spent for a visit. The builds are visually stunning, harmonious, interesting and well-thought out. Don’t miss Ordinal Malaprop’s lighthouse shop, Marconi, Maxim and Tesla Associates, or any of a dozen other places there I haven’t even been yet.

I should add as a postscript that Caledon is actually four adjacent sims.

Our Home

Nogojiri 11,209,21 – note This is Faithhold, our place on the water in Nogojiri. A quarter of it is public, the part with the garden, trees, and stargates. The other three-quarters are private, protected by a polite security system. The public area is nice to watch sunsets from, and benches are there for that purpose.
