Today I arrived at a land called Acachon. A lovely little seaside village that.......
OMG! I can't do it folks! Sometimes I click online with this idea to be this little Victorian Miss then I end up keeping it real. Some how that African-American from Brooklyn creeps out and bang! The next thing I know I feel like a doof in a Victorian dress. Of course sometimes it just comes on out and bites me on the ass. Like last week. There I was feeling like I wanted to do something on SL. Then I thought, " Gee, wouldn't be great to go horseback riding!?" So I get out my Victorian Riding gear; Victorian Riding hat, riding pants, high boots, gloves, the whole kit.

So I get out my Victorian Riding gear; Victorian Riding hat, riding pants, high boots, gloves, the whole kit.
The something else popped in my head. "Oh wouldn't it be cool to horseback ride on a beach!" So of course I knew I couldn't transport to Beach Walk Cafe (BWC) and horseback ride on a what I think is a pretty modern looking beach. So what does the world 39th oldest teenager do? Search in SL Viewer for the word beach.
Of course I find this description on the Find Window in the SL search listing: French Seaside Village made after the style of the Village Arcachon in France. So yeah Ms. Doof get's on her horse and transports to Arcachon. (If it's spelled right, you can search for it yourself on the Sl website if your a member of Sl.) I was expecting something like Paris 1900 sim with replicas of a French village in the 1900's. Buzz! Wrong answer! It was more like a modern version of a French Village evolved from an old village with villas and cafes with modern music playing thru out the sim. And me dressed like a Victorian Miss in Riding habit standing out like...you guest it a doof! Ha, ha, ha. Laugh it up you chuckle misters you guys. Happens all the time in Second Life. The description never really meets the expectations of the travel here.
So of course I continue my ride thru this village having to use Mouselook in order to prevent myself from bumping into every tree and building on the place! [Snicker] Seeing said villias and listening to the pop music coming thru my speakers. (How's that for popping the bubble of fantasy for ya?) But it was so bad. After I parked Bucket The Wonder Horse by a tree and put him in inventory I made my way to these really cool beach tents. Blue and white straight out of some movie. Think 'Some Like It Hot' or 'The Girl From Impania'. Yeah of course I had to change! Into my really hot Sarong bikini. Appearing on this seaside resort looking hot and sexy thank you very much!
A great thing about Second Life is that you have the possibility of redeeming yourself in a bit of sticky situation if need be. (Excuse me the Victorian Miss seems to be wanting to make an appearance. Sorry!) Anyways, I found a decent spot for my avatar to have a bit of a tan. Another upside to being in SL, no sunburn! ;) Funny though for a modern place there were a lot of old touches. I swear if I ever went to that village in France in real life I'd feel like nothing much changed in the some odd years that village in France existed. (Yeah, a in depth researcher I'm not. O.k I'll go and search in Google and sound more knowledgeable next time promise!)
Well I got up and walked up to this pier. There hanging about was this boat. By now if your a constant reader of this blog you know my luck with some of the vehicles on some certain sims. But this time this boat worked. If gave me a complete tour of the place. Stood up to pop in this peaceful forest farm. Walked till I spied this horse. How ironic? More so as I couldn't ride this beauty. Dang! But hey was allowed to pet it! Pfft! It was black with this diamond shaped white marking on it's forehead with thick legs. Gorgeous! Avoid the beehives if you go there. I mean there was even a sign that said to click if you want to get stung by a bunch of bees. Seriously? Whose the fool doing that? Don't do that!
Although the sim seems to be created for couples or avatars with little mini-avatars (children, some adults pretending to be kids, sometimes teenagers, it's just a thing some people are into, I don't judge), it still an enchanting place and if you want to go there with a sweetie you can practically spend a week there in between bouts of real life of course! Bars, stores, and a beach. So what if I looked like a walking anachronism! I had fun and you can too! *******************************************************************************
So evening fell in real life and instead of writing immediately in my blog about this enchanting place stated above I ended up hang out with my sassy friend KitKow. (Shout out to my kitty!) Anyway she IM'd (Instant Messaged) me and ended up asking me to go to this really cool place. You do know how much I love to shop right? Of course sometimes the best shopping in Sl is free shopping! (You do know right, about how much I love shopping. You don't? Geez guys first time reading this huh? LOL Well you know now right?)
This place was massive! Docked by this sim is this simulation of a cruise ship! Of course I try for realism as much as I can when the mood strikes me. And I was hungry ya'll! Begged Kit to let me go eat and she took me to this really cool Diner. Order up a hamburger and ate a real White Castle from the microwave in real life. Talked with Kit for a while. (Can't tell you what the conversation was about that's private! Giggle!) The Kitkow took me on a sea-cruise. Well the boat really did go nowhere but it was filled with shops, a ballroom, and lucky chairs! It even had a swimming pool which I went into after Kitkow went to bed. I feltas tired as I do now. Mind if I go to bed? I promise to write Part II of what happen on my weekend in Second Life tomorrow. Good night!
