Early Morning Visit To The Park

Alex & Cariashi

It was a bright morning so I decided to go for a stroll in the park. As with all mornings, the day was bright and I was optimistic. This day was made even brighter when I met Alex and Cariashi in the Hub. Friendly as always, it was a sheer delight to chat with them before breakfast. Thank you Alex and Cariashi, you both looked lovely today.

Weekend Wrap #1-St. George's Day Party

With Saturday being St. George's Day, London had to naturally bring you a huge party for this special day in England! Parties kicked off in our normal clubs, Capital, Retrograde, and Coach & Horses; followed by a huge event in Hyde Park, with DJ Jester kicking things off, followed by a special 90 minute Evanescence Tribute Band Concert. Finishing up the night was DJ Anakin with Host Pagan, keeping everyone partying for 4 hours. One thing I can say is that I am glad we are on private sims, where our capacity is 100 avis and not on the mainland were capacity is 40 avis and we would have had to turn people away, particularly since this event packed in over 80 avis throughout the day! Check out a slideshow from this event:
