Last day of the year (Chinese yr of Snake)

Restless and on the prowl, after reading Honor's blog about Kowloon, I realized that it had been a long time since I'd visited myself. Obviously I was there at the wrong time, everyone was sleeping off the celebrations of yesterday.

Densely populated, the buildings are high, and crowded, There  doesn't appear to be any zoning by-laws, you have small restaurants, or retail outlets where you don't expect to find anything.  If you go too far into the warren to streets and lanes, you will be hard pressed to find your way out easily. I think it would be correct in saying that the area I was in was a true  labyrinth.

Time for a change, After a quick trip home to change, we headed for  the 1920 Berlin Project.  This is the beauty of life in SL. Lappen und Knochen the second hand store was open, its across from the Paul Christoph Restaurant zum Nussbaum, actually the Berliner Post Press is next door to the Second Hand shop.  What history buff doesn't want to read about more about the places they visit.

In the Second Hand shop we found this great pair of men's old underwear, with a good wash they should be a lot of fun to wear  for a girl's sleep over,
With the man undershirt it would go great with a grunge look and it was only  
31L.. the pants were 17L  

Unfortunately there are no vacancies at the moment, but it is possible to rent a room or take lodging here in the Project,  We are totally enthralled with the place.  It is so genteel.

Everything seems to be in walking distance, or you can take the tram, it has gone past several times now, so there would be no long wait for transportation. We found a bakery we couldn't resist, why not, its Chinese New Year after all.. A treat is in order.

KOWLOON,

1920 Berlin Project - part 2

On our second visit, we are exploring the street outside the train station, heading for the  MER (MittelEuropaisches Reisbeburo (appears to be a travel agent's office) to perhaps find some information on what i can expect.  A street car arrived and on impulse I jumped on,

I did get to see inside the MER office.  Everything is so true to the period.

Now to get my bearings.  Ah there is a bathing building, where free swimsuits are offered. the pool looks very inviting. At the corner  of  Mittelstr and Friedrichstr I see a Clarrington's Delikatessen, oh they serve ups some very tempting treats.. Down the street I see the Clarrington Bakery.  This could be a calorie laden visit.

I got lost, here I am in the police station waiting for someone to tell me where I am, and how to find a hotel for the night, I think I'll stay to explore some more.  I had no idea that the side streets were like a maze of smaller streets with homes and lodgings.  Maybe I can meet someone who will take me around,  This is exciting  .. till next time..

Visiting the Past

We've had fun doing retro.  The 50-60's is a lot of fun, now we are sending our model down to the 1920-s Berlin Project.  We've touched on the sim before, but really never spent that much time there.  With the cold winter, and the storms brewing what seems to be all over the North American continent, we are off to explore Berlin in the 20,30 and 40s.

It is important to note that this is a role play sim, and there is a dress code. To make it easier for you to explore the first time you arrive, there is a booth in the reception area, where participating designers have put out a couple of freebies. Before boarding the train, you must be dressed properly.  Everything is very clearly outlined for you.

Our model Chicas read the map to see if there is one place in particular she would like to start. She has already boarded the train, and has dismounted in Berlin.

This is the second dress offered by Mila Edelman of OTP (Old Time Prims) for a full selection of the merchandise carried by OTP, you can catch the taxi at the end of this blog.  Because we want to stay as authentic as possible, our model is going to go across the street to have her hair done @ the LOLA LOLA DAMEN UND HERREN FRISEUR

Where will we go from here, stay tuned.. Part 2 to follow in a few days
