Romance and Fun

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to get some suggestions for some romantic places to take that special someone, and any particularly fun things people have found to do in world.

I'm also looking to upgrade my wardrobe, so if you ladies know of any stores you like to send your men to when you want them to look good, please let me know.

Thanks everyone,

Ibanez

Mermaid Diaries has a list of places to go- Recently I visited Prim Hearts- an amusement park and had a great time- Apollo- is another that is very lovely- do a search here in the forum for maybe romance or romantic places - this comes up often.

Here is a list I copied from such a thread about a year ago: THE LIST IS NOT MINE- I COPIED IT.

1. Hoini: The 1001 Arabian Nights themed sim, and the Egyptian Palace, Anubia, on the lagoon, the most amazing build I have ever seen in sl.

2. Temple of Apollo: Staggering

3. Suffugeum: The most sinister deserted sim in SL.
2. Bliss

Hoini

Hanging Gardens of Babylon
3. Inspire Spacepark
Acropolis
Svarga
4. Black Swan
5. Port Seraphine
6. Isle of Wyrms
7. Tromp Loeil/214/123/36
8. Damania - futuristic, serene village on 2 sim island - all swoopy, curly in white marble, gold and frosted glass. It is an amazing feat of creativity.

Dresden Gallery - a recreation of the real thing, in Germany. I think this is the most ambitious build I've seen.

Also Virtual Amsterdam was awesome - not sure if it still exists. Virtual Dublin is good too.
9. Creative Fantasy
10. Endless Destruction for seeing what simple prims can do...

Greenies

Abyss 2

Botanical Gardens

Serenity Gardens (amazing Tree houses and magical feel)
11. Hoini and Anubia.
12. Rua
13. Nexus Prime
14. 1001 Nights sim in Purgatorio
15. Port Caledon
16. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Brythony/140/134/26
17. Buddhist Shrine of Varosha
18. Intemptesta Nox and Sanctum Sanctorum

Virtual Starry Night - Van Gogh art gallery
Bedrock - Sounds like alot of fun but I haven't been there yet
Titanic - pose balls at the bow for the movie scene, nice ballroom.

My favorite romantic spot by far is Avilion. At first the ballroom...but then we branched out and explored the sim a bit more and found lots of romantic, out-of-the-way hidden spots to cuddle.

On Fatimas Islands, there is a peddle powered derigible ride that flies over most of her sims. It is intended to point out places for new residents there and give you a feel for the place like a soft sales pitch, but the Victorian scenery and work they have done is fantastic. The ride can hold two people and is perfect for a little alone time.

Cape cruise has a lot of great looking formal mens wear, near the Corset formal ballroom. Looks really great, and some are free as well

My wife and I visited Africa the other day. We loved it so much that it's in my Pics.

We floated over the praries/jungles snuggled in a hot air balloon, rode zebras, Took pictures while cuddling next to a beautiful waterfall etc.

We'll be going back there again.

Coconut Ice at Cape Cruise is another nice, classy romantic area.

The other day I took a date scuba diving. While it wasn't romantic we both had a wonderful time. Got some free scuba gear too.

Wonderful thread BTW to the OP. This is one of my few bookmarked threads to keep.

Thanks Zerock. Now that there is a special young woman in my SL world, I want to find as many new and interesting things as possible to do, especially those that lean towards romance.

Thanks for everyone's thoughts... Hopefully the list grows....

Oh, and in Avilion, by the outside dance area outside the castle, is a boat ride that is romantic in and of itself, but also takes you through the various Avilion sims where you can spy out the little romantic "nooks and crannies."

Enjoy!

I'd just like suggestions to find that special someone.

/me grins

The most romantic and jaw dropping place I have been so far is Thassa Islands.

Thassa 252,90,22

It is a couple of Gor based sims but they are not roleplay. You arrive up in the universe and catch the spaceship to a ship. Jump on the row boat alongside the ship and row out to the islands. The islands are packed with both romantic and fun things, you will never find everything the first visit. When you arrive travel right and it's the more fun stuff, left is the romantic, though worth doing it all just to see what you find.

I might have a few suggestions, but nothing I could post here . . .

Pep (*grins even more broadly*)

Top of my list for a romantic spot is the Salsas y Boleros ballroom in Appollo. But the whole sim, really, is beautiful. I'll second the reccommendation for the Titanic, and also add Straylight Forest, which is stunningly beautiful.

Or, anywhere that has a Paradise Blanket. If you've not been for a ride on one of those you really should.

As for places to go for good mens clothes, heres a few I can think of offhand:

Redgrave
Valiant
Hoorenbeeks
House of Zen
Sartoria

Back Story of ' Bootie Bay '
____________________________

The Island was first discovered by accident in the early 1800's by merchants who shipwrecked here after a freak storm.

They had with them just enough food, water and livestock to survive long enough to set up a home on the Island .

They had given up any hope of ever being rescued by a passing ship.... But were they alone ?

The adventure awaits you !....... Are you ready ?

Bootie Bay is still a work in progress ( Still trying to find time ), I opened it to the public for beta testing a while back and have had a huge flow of traffic Via THE LOOP and NPIRL , The feedback has been very positive form visitors and bloggers ... But i still think of it as unfinished .

Feel free to take a look , I'm sure it will meet your demands

Follow the path through the Village ... and mind your step ...

Have Fun
