Tried and True Sim Explores

I started this blog post on Thursday and was going to call it a Throwback Thursday post for Thanksgiving.  I thought I'd post some of my fave long lasting explore sims in appreciation for the joy they've consistently brought me in a world where many places come and go.  These have been around a long time and I'm sure I've blogged them all at some point or another in the past but are worthy of a new post for new residents or some that don't get around much.  Some have changed a little making further exploring a new experience. I might even add a few more later.  Enjoy

Black Kite: Great for exploring, posing, pictures, relaxing: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Black%20Kite/97/233/21

The Wastelands, an awesome SL post-apocalyptic themed residential estate, is community-driven with residents who live there paying for it to exist on the grid. This is a also a mature role play sim. Most everyone whose been in SL for much time at all has visited this creative enviornment for some reason or another whether to role play, buy some amazing outfits or gadgets, or take impressive photos in their picturesque sim. This weekend they are celebrating their 5th birthday with a lineup of events from Jan. 20th through the 22nd. The Wastelands is host to regular events, and features it's own internal combat system. The Wastelands boasts an eclectic participatory crowd at most their regular events and this weekend will be sure to delight all. I stopped in this evening for some great tunes and dancing amid the natives and had a good time. Don't miss out, be sure to visit this weekened. Schedul of events as follows:
