The Further Adventures of the Dread Pirate Petal

Ahoy! The Unicorn set sail from Murray. My mission? Find cool stuff underwater, and sail north to Heterocera while passing Bay City on the way!

(by the way, did you see what Auntie installed on the sides?  ARR!  No quarter, mateys!)

Welcome new readers!

Welcome new readers and new old readers to Adventure Day! Here's a little bit of information about the blog and what might help to know.

It started when Mistletoe's niece, Petal, decided to set out on her bike along the mainland roads of Second Life. The rule was (and remains), no flying, no teleporting (except to get unstuck, say if a sim crossing sticks her under the pavement), no grossly unrealistic means of travel (like pulling an aircraft out of her backpack).

Well the idea was so much fun that PJ's goddaughter Joline decided to join in, and for several weeks the two of them would bike the roads together on Tuesdays (making Tuesday ADVENTURE DAY!), snap pictures, and blog about their findings.

Before too long Lelani's niece Bugginia and Thaddeus's son Cornelius became part of the adventures too, and adventures began happening so rapidly, so unexpectedly, and so out-of-any-kind-of-schedule, that blogging about them ultimately fell by the wayside.

So, you have what you see today: a somewhat (but not totally) disjointed blog that's fallen out of use.

So, as the human behind the keys for Mistletoe, Petal, and a host of others, I decided it's time to dust this off again.

But, because there are so many kids, and so many adventures to be had, it will probably be best for each kid to post his or her own adventures in his or her own time. The same "rules" apply: no flying, no teleporting, no grossly unrealistic means of travel (unless you can find a way to fit it into the story, such as the S. S. Unicorn).

We hope you the reader will continue to enjoy our discoveries and pictures.

Sincerely,
LF

A Kid Avatar's Guide to SL9B Builds

So, holy cow, SL9B already!!  SLB's are like my favorite time of the year. So this year I got a free camera at the Bay City build (yay, thanks!) and went to see what's some good spots for kids like me to visit. It doesn't mean these builds are not for adults! It just means that their they're good for kids. Also this isn't all of the places good for kids to see either. It's just some that I saw today.

Willowdale Elementary A couple classrooms, a locker room, a football field, and lots of good stuff about being a school-age kid. That's real good because not all kids are babies!!

First Church of Rosedale It's got a merry-go-round, lots of yummy food (ICE CREAM!) and the most epic waterslide EVER. You can't go to SL9B without going on this!!

Horse Events Make sure you stop here and get a FREE PONY!!!

Dench Designs A scout camp setup with a free dog!

Second Life Children Did you know that one time kids weren't even allowed at SLB?! It's true!! Go here and learn about stuff kids in SL can do, and even how adults can turn into kids!!!
