I’m always looking for interesting places to stretch my fins on the grid, and I want you to come along too!
I know this SIM has been around for a little while, today was my first visit. There’s actually a mermaid-specific underwater area that’s stunning (which I ran across on flickr here). There are a few tacky full-bright novelty cutouts here and there that spoil the atmosphere a bit, but the good far outweighs the bad. This is one of the best aquatic spots I’ve been to in a long time. Come look!

I took a few months off from Second Life. I’m back, sort of, but really only logging in once a week a most.
I’ve been really, really glad to see lots of development in the merfolk community. Lots of things I’m curious about investiating more, but haven’t had the time to.
One thing I’ve noticed is that there are flexi tails now popping up in various shops. Erluen Twin’s Merwings has some (I’m always impressed with the technical quality of her products. Not so much the textures, but her tails are some of the best built I’ve ever worn). I’m curous how flexi’s work. I’m guessing that invisiprims are used to hide the legs? And how does that work with an AO? Wouldn’t the tail flop all over the place?
My Japanese friend Kyotta Spittler has also opened the doors to a brand new Mermaid Temple. It’s been under construction for a while, and I’m pleased to see that going!
Anyway, I hope to be back and updating this blog even if it’s on a semi-regular basis. Please send me LM’s of any intersting places to swim and photograph.
