>> Q: Why do your destinations only last 2 weeks?
- A: Because after 2 weeks doing destinations the way me and my staff do, we all need a change, specially me! After 2 weeks I barelly can look at the destination nor be in it anymore, I cannot explain why, its just how I feel and its a deep feeling lol. I have a nomad / gypsy spirit, guesst developped by my late dad, because when it came to trips, one day were here and the next day, there.
>> Q: Why do your destinations only open on week-ends?
- A: Because most of my guests work during the week and I am also extremelly busy with my businesses (RL & SL) during the week, I can barely stop too long in one spot.
Plus, on week-ends, staff and guests are normally home so we can all make sure to have a blast with our guests! They have our full attention for 9am to 6-7pm slt.
>> Q: Why do you do full service destinations?
- A: In 2011, I noticed most people I was encountering in SL had not travelled ever in real life. I have been very fortunate when it comes to traveling, i have always done it my all life and I wanted to show people in SL who had never travelled, how amazing it can be and this is why I opened my first destination in 2011 and each year and as time goes by I always try to find way to improve this virtual traveling! Another reason its because I LOVE roleplay, during 5 years of my life I was addicted to roleplay in SL, in roleplay world such as Gor or Crack Den, I am what many call in the roleplay world, a paragraph roleplayer, I will create stories, weave stories and make full paragraphs that will make you travel in your mind. This side of the grid, there is no such, so I wanted to join both, experience of traveling with roleplay. Thurd reason is because I believe destinations can be a spot of meeting new people and its why in my full service destinations, our guests eat all at same table so they can interact, I have seen beautiful friendships start this way and it makes my heart sing of joy!
>> Q: Why do you do AirBnB destinations?
- A: Because I also have guests who don't liek to interact, which is why I don't have staff in these destinations and guests can enjoy their vacations the way they see fit, since and when there is respect to the destinations rules and other guests so all can enjoy! I always try to see ways to have something for everybody.
>> Q: Weren't BADU destinations supposed to be public ones with vacation rentals only?
- A: Don't worry, they will come back as well, I have so many projects to be done starting this year for the traveling world in Second Life and as usual I will do my best to cover all sides and have a bit for everyone! Keep an eye open!

" Love is the answer, you know it is definitely the answer, you know for sure. Love is a flower you have to let it grow love is that you have to let it grow a flower. "
The lyrics are John Lennon’s "Mind Game"
Absolutely right.... unfortunately, most people don’t know that love is the flower you have to cultivate.
“It was a question I had worn on my lips for days - like a loose thread on my favourite sweater I couldn't resist pulling - despite knowing it could all unravel around me.
"Do you love me?" I ask.
In your hesitation I found my answer.”

Gray ghost surprise!!
It's always good to wash your fruit in the morning. You may ask...."But why?".....The answer...because it means you're facing your big sliding glass doors and might spot something wonderful out in the open space behind your house. That's exactly what happened. I saw a hawk come swooping in and land right behind my fence. I assumed it was our resident red-tailed hawk.....but when I went over to look...it was flying away from me and I could see it had a white patch on top of it's tail which could only mean a Northern Harrier. However, what I didn't expect was that it was a MALE harrier or as many call it a Grey ghost!!! We have never seen a male harrier hunting behind our house. I made some inaudible sounds with my excitement.....grabbed my camera and bolted out of the back door. I really didn't expect it to hang around very long, and it didn't. It flew out of sight, but then back in sight, and then repeated this numerous times. Finally he started making some circles and made a few passes right in front of me. He also managed to fly with some very nice fall colors behind him in the distance. I will have a few more to share, but here are some of my favorites.

Some things feel like they take forever when they really come faster than we realize. He asked, she said yes.. well, she said 'Holy biscuits.' For her, that means yes.
This Monkey Morgan view of a housing estate in Carlow looks like an ancient hillside drawing, with greater geometric precision, but without the artistic flare of the ancients? We may be able to see where this was, but can we see what it looks like today?
+++ UPDATE +++
Google satellite view (thanks beachcomber australia) allows us to imagine ourselves in a cockpit along with the intrepid Monkey Morgan. Meanwhile, our own Morning Mary is very disappointed with the answer to her query about the weird markings in the huge field at bottom right. She’s always on the prowl for a good story or bit of scandal. However, it seems that “modified herring bone pattern in field is for land drainage” according to George FitzPatrick.

It's time for the questions and answers this is for two things first and I'm almost a year in Flickr and second is almost my birthday and that's why I decided to do this I can ask something about me what they want to know
Angry C.. i think hes a latin king.. i cant tell.. he was too blasted and pissed to answer my question..
Often when I see people pitch X-men reboots, they do one of two things: A) Do the original Uncanny X-men roster of Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Angel and Iceman or B) Just plugs in every popular X-men right off the bat. I don't like either of these. The uncanny X-men roster is kinda bland, while having every popular X-man in one movie would obviously not work.
My ideal line up would comprise of Cyclops, Jean Grey, Nightcrawler, Storm and Angel. Professor X and Beast would also be present but as mentors to the team, not actual X-men.

we're here seeking answers to existence.
I don't know if this depicts anything about existentialism but hey, where would we be without light? (for one thing, out Flickr pages would be pretty dull)

In answer to Lance's question from yesterday, this is what at least some of the previously 'redundant' cruise ships are now doing.......running cruises around the British Isles. In the distance you can see the ghost ship vessel from yesterday's post, P & O Ventura. That ship is now underway, currently leaving Weymouth Bay, destination Southampton.
In the foreground is TUI Marella Explorer, photographed in Portland harbour today. The vessel is on an 11-night cruise starting and finishing at Southampton, visiting places such as Liverpool and Holyhead. However, it seems that TUI's original itinerary has changed as the ship is currently sailing to an unscheduled stop at Dover and was never scheduled to visit Portland. I think it is possible they have had to miss out the Irish ports of Dublin and Cork?
Judging by the number of shore excursion coaches leaving the ship after breakfast towards Weymouth, there were quite a number of people on board. Sadly none were seen exploring the Isle of Portland itself. They missed out! Apart from a really interesting island, they may well have also seen two people carrying a greenhouse. Surely the highlight of any holiday!? But that story is for another day.
52 in 2022 Challenge - 8 Your Favourite Number
The other week I was out with Darren Wilkin and mentioned that I had to do my favourite number for a challenge, but I don't really have a favourite number.
Darren instantly said 42, and it just so happened that yesterday I was sat at table number 42. So 42 can now be my favourite number :)))
As everyone is entering 2017, the unknown stares back at us, and we wonder what lies over the horizon. I think this picture brings home the reality of the human mindset, in that while we are a little afraid of the unknown, and at the very best, can be uncomfortable or challenged by it, we are also drawn into it! The desire to see what lies ahead, around the bend, or over a hill is what drives us on to conquer our own fears and discomfort. Sometimes, we will wish we hadn't trudged ahead, but other times, we will be glad we did.
A friend of mine once said in a poem she wrote that we should seek to be pioneers, not settlers. Keep exploring, keep conquering new challenges and setting those lofty goals!
Yesterday, my nephew came over for a while. He told us his plans to go into the National Guard, join a police force eventually, and then get a law degree and be a cop AND a lawyer! At first, I looked at him like he was crazy, and thought to myself, he can't do that! Then I asked him if maybe he didn't think he might be spreading himself too thin with those goals. He shrugged and basically said he could do it. I then thought, what right do I have to convince him otherwise?! At 21, the world is still your oyster, and you have the strength to accomplish great things. I hope he does it!
For those of us who haven't the time or energy to take on the entire world anymore, I just want to encourage us all to at least keep chomping on those bits of life that make it glorious! Don't ever give up, and don't ever stop dreaming! There are still a lot of unknowns to conquer, and we will always be entering another forest with something in the distance that lures us to go deeper. It's the best of life that's calling us. We need to answer the unknown when it calls...
