On with the tour! Grab your towel and swimwear and follow me.


To Vixens Isle Stargate Beach we head next. Where whales splash and play and you can lounge on the beach near a roaring fire. There are plenty of beach towels out to lounge on and even a raft if you feel like getting a bit closer to those orcas.


Up the hill from the beach is a boardwalk platform.

Here is where we host some of our events that are more suited to the warm sun. ( Even if the island is still covered in snow ^-^) There is a bar where you can grab a drink and some picnic tables to take a load off at.


Personally I like the view from the rail, though the seaguls that have found somones left over pizza are bugging me a bit.

I think Ill move on to the slide.

Whee! taking those turns is great fun at high speed, but the water at the end is Cold! Birr.

Tuesdays and Fridays are the nights we have contests on the beach, but the island is open all day, so head down if you want a quiet place to catch some rays!

Tomorrow we will visit the fun games on the island. So stay tuned for more fun! As always, Your friendly shape shifter signing off ^-^

By the way, there is a stargate at the edge of the beach, so if you want to head there and are near one, just dial up the beach.

Search of the Sea Bunny




After a long few days without any adventure and no internet to boot, I felt swimming was needed. I used the ever fun search button and found a few places to swim. One caught my eye as it said there was more to do than just swim. So I checked it out, and they were right, Aquafrolic is definatly a fun spot to swim and more. ( The more is a bit of shopping, and every so often they have an event out there.)

They have a freebie snorkel that lets you explore the deep without feeling like a noob who wandered into the water. In otherwords a more realistic experince. So I picked one up and wandered around under the sea.

First off the dock area, I found a shark and was a little shaken, then I realized he was swimming in circles, and I quit worrying about that silly shark.


Then I found some pretty schools of fish swimming around and sat watching them for a bit.


After that something structural caught my eye and I headed that direction. There was a sunken ship. Not much left, but an obstacle course to swim through non the less. ^-^




So I spent the early evening swimming around in the depths of the water around the beaches of aquafrolic and I hope you'll visit as well.

Not a bad idea to follow this Siren's call


Since I felt like swimming, I decided I'd look for somewhere else than my pond. I found that there are plenty of great places to swim, but one in particular caught my eye. Innisfree is a quiet place to take that someone you love or even just like ^-~

Its full of romantic spots to sit with your honey bunch and just look at the view. The waterways around the area are great for a quick dip, and there are plenty of spots to just relax at the waters edge. If swimming upstream isn't your fav, there is a pool with plenty of rafts and pool toys to splash in.


I enjoyed sitting on the bridge by the waterfall and just imagining the romance that could blossom here. There are picnic blankets, swings and lots of great snuggling spots.

There's even a roman bath, if you feel like soaking while you watch the sun set.


Personally, I think I'll just keep this one in my romance file as a great place to spend Valentines day at.

Hope your enjoying your second life as much as I am mine ^-^ * sneaks off muttering, now where did I leave that map.*
