When it comes to details Fred and Deb's Virunga leaves nothing to the imagination. I come by to leave a note or gift for Deb in her mailbox at Rosamond Halsey Carr house. Rosamond Halsey Carr (1912-2006) had a flower ranch in Rwanda,. After the genocide of Hutus by Tutsi, when 8 people were killed in her gardens, she turned her flower sheds in the Imbabazi Orphanage. She was 84.

Since that time Roz and her staff have cared for more than 400 children. Since Roz's passing in 2006, the orphanage is under the direction of Partners in Conservation and currently cares for more than 100 orphans.

Roz also wrote the book "Land of a Thousand Hills: My Life in Rwanda," with her niece, Ann Howard Halsey, chronicling her love affair with one of the world's most beautiful and tormented regions. She is also the 2004 recipient of the Volvo for Life Award.

Deb would love to hear from you, please drop by and leave a note!

The Fleetwood Beach Lagoon

The Fleetwood Beach Lagoon offers a peaceful contrast to the more technical and industrial areas of the region.

Surrounded by water, shoreline and the surrounding landscape, it is a place where visitors can slow down, enjoy the scenery and take in the special atmosphere of Fleetwood Beach.

The lagoon is designed as a natural part of the region and connects the maritime character of Fleetwood Beach with its distinctive Steampunk setting. The result is an area that invites both exploration and relaxation.

From here, visitors can enjoy interesting views across other parts of the sim, including buildings, technical constructions and nearby attractions.

For anyone who would like to experience the quieter side of Fleetwood Beach, the lagoon is an ideal place to stop for a while and simply enjoy the surroundings.

Always Evolving

Many more ideas are still hidden away in the mind of Mike Fleetwood, waiting to be brought to life.

Fleetwood Beach is therefore not a finished project, but a region that is constantly evolving. New buildings, technical gadgets, vehicles, interactive systems and unusual attractions are gradually being created and integrated into the world of Fleetwood Beach.

That is why a visit is always worthwhile. Those who return later will often discover new details, try out new features or experience areas that did not even exist during their previous visit.

Fleetwood Beach is always changing – and there is always something new to discover and try out.

Coming to you at 6am - 8am PDT/SLT/OST/Grid Time (2pm to 4pm UK), 2 hours of fun, laughter and banter, kicking off your Saturday with a bang!, come one, come all, all are welcome to come and join in party and have fun!

The Fleetwood Beach Telescope

The large Fleetwood Beach Telescope is located in its own observatory and is one of the region’s special technical attractions.

Its design is inspired by classic large astronomical telescopes and has been adapted to fit the Steampunk world of Fleetwood Beach. Mechanical elements, metal structures and its impressive construction give the instrument the appearance of an old scientific machine.

Visitors can take a seat at the telescope and use it to observe the surroundings of Fleetwood Beach from an elevated perspective. They are not limited to predefined viewing points and can decide for themselves where they want to look.

This freedom of use makes the telescope a special experience. It is not merely a decorative feature of the observatory, but an interactive way to explore the region from a completely different perspective.

Anyone who enjoys technical constructions, old observatories and unusual viewpoints should definitely pay a visit to the Fleetwood Beach Telescope.

Currently under construction.

The Balloons of Fleetwood Beach

The Steampunk balloons of Fleetwood Beach offer a special way to explore the region from the air.

Visitors can choose between two different experiences.

There are player-controlled balloons, where you take the pilot’s seat and fly the balloon yourself. You control its altitude, direction and movement. The deliberately slow and slightly delayed handling gives the impression of flying a large, heavy airship rather than a fast vehicle.

If you prefer to relax and simply enjoy the view, you can take the automatic balloon tour instead. The balloon follows a predefined route through Fleetwood Beach, allowing passengers to enjoy a comfortable sightseeing trip without having to control the flight themselves.

This way, every visitor can decide whether they want to be the pilot or simply enjoy the ride as a passenger.

Whether you fly on your own or take the automatic tour, the balloons provide a unique view of the buildings, landscapes and attractions of Fleetwood Beach and are one of the most enjoyable ways to explore the region.

The Fleetwood Beach Monorail

The Fleetwood Beach Monorail is more than just a means of transportation – it is a small attraction in its own right and offers a unique way to explore the region.

The gondola travels automatically along a predefined route through Fleetwood Beach. It follows a series of waypoints and stops at designated stations, where visitors can get on and off.

During the ride, you can enjoy the region from an elevated perspective. Buildings, plazas, technical installations and other areas of Fleetwood Beach can be discovered comfortably from the gondola.

The railway has been designed to match the style of the region, combining the idea of a classic monorail with the mechanical and industrial atmosphere of Fleetwood Beach.

Simply take a seat, enjoy the ride and experience Fleetwood Beach from a different point of view.

Coming to you at 6am - 8am PDT/SLT/OST/Grid Time (2pm to 4pm UK), 2 hours of fun, laughter and banter, kicking off your Saturday with a bang!, come one, come all, all are welcome to come and join in party and have fun!

the last stretches are, of course, the nastiest: minimize sim-load....
working hard, digging new trenches daily with Gemini..... perceveirance, I think, was the word...

I would like to warmly thank everyone who attended the vigil in memory of Azraella last night. It was a beautiful moment, and I know there will be others.
We gathered around a memorial in her honor—one that will remain in place. Everyone is welcome to visit and leave a token in her memory.

hop://grid.virtual-worlds.zone:8002/VWZ%20Welcome/122/169/...

The photo accompanying this post is not of Azraella, but of one of her virtual artists, Tiggy Roy—an artist I have been a fan of since day one. While the physical features may differ, the heartfelt message suits her perfectly.

Rest in peace, my friend.

CC-CLUB Returns to Its Roots

🎶 CC-CLUB is going back to what it does best.

We're bringing the spirit of the good old days into the present, with a renewed focus on quality music, authentic vibes, and unforgettable beats.

From now on, our events will be dedicated exclusively to genres such as:

Tech House
Progressive Tech House
Minimal & Deep
Peak Time Techno
Synth-Pop
Synthwave
EBM
Industrial Underground
Gothic
EDM

To match the unique atmosphere of each genre, we have carefully selected clubs and venues that reflect their distinctive sound and culture.

We are not here to generate artificial traffic—that has never been our purpose in OpenSim. Whether 30 people attend or just 3, our passion remains the same; the music comes first, together with a good community and conversation.
Our Slogan : Good Vibes = Good Mood !

We understand that these genres may not appeal to the majority of OpenSim residents, and that's perfectly fine. CC-CLUB is dedicated to those who share our love for electronic, alternative music cultures and the underground sound of that time.
Everyone who appreciates these sounds is warmly welcome.

🎵 One thing we stand firmly behind: we do not support or play AI-generated music. Our commitment is to authentic genuine creativity, and real musical expression.


C&C 🖤


CC-CLUB kehrt zu seinen Wurzeln zurück

🎶 Der CC-CLUB besinnt sich wieder auf das, was er am besten kann.

Wir holen den Geist der guten alten Zeit in die Gegenwart – mit einem neuen Fokus auf erstklassige Musik, authentische Vibes und unvergessliche Beats.

Ab sofort widmen wir unsere Events ausschließlich Genres wie:

Tech House
Progressive Tech House
Minimal & Deep
Peak Time Techno
Synth-Pop
Synthwave
EBM
Industrial Underground
Gothic
EDM

Um der einzigartigen Atmosphäre jedes Genres gerecht zu werden, haben wir Clubs und Locations sorgfältig ausgewählt, die den jeweiligen Sound und die dazugehörige Kultur widerspiegeln.

Uns geht es nicht darum, künstlich hohe Besucherzahlen zu generieren – das war in OpenSim nie unser Ziel. Ob 30 Leute kommen oder nur drei: Unsere Leidenschaft bleibt dieselbe. Die Musik steht an erster Stelle, ebenso wie eine gute Community und der Austausch untereinander.
Unser Motto: Gute Klänge = Gute Laune!

Uns ist bewusst, dass diese Genres vielleicht nicht den Geschmack der breiten Masse in OpenSim treffen – und das ist völlig in Ordnung. Der CC-CLUB richtet sich an alle, die unsere Liebe zu elektronischer Musik, alternativen Musikkulturen und dem damaligen Underground Sound teilen. Jeder, der diese Klänge zu schätzen weiß, ist herzlich willkommen.

🎵 Eines steht für uns fest: Wir unterstützen keine KI-generierte Musik und spielen sie auch nicht. Wir setzen voll und ganz auf authentische, echte Kreativität und wahrhaftigen musikalischen Ausdruck.


C&C 🖤

„Reborn“ – ein Abend, an dem Stoffe Geschichten erzählen.

Diese Kollektion spielt mit Licht und Bewegung, als hätte jedes Kleid beschlossen, seine eigene Bühne zu betreten. Kein lautes Drama, sondern leise Eleganz, die sich selbst genügt. Die Farben wirken wie ein Gespräch zwischen Mut und Stil – und genau das macht sie lebendig.

Man spürt, dass hier niemand versucht, zu gefallen. Die Outfits tun einfach, was sie wollen: glänzen, fließen, auffallen – aber mit Haltung. Ein bisschen Ironie liegt in der Luft, als wollten sie sagen: „Ja, wir sind schön, aber wir wissen auch, dass das nicht alles ist.“

My condolences @RevTom.

Azraella was one of the most kind and creative friends I had.
I am grateful for the friendship we shared for many years.

Rest in Peace my dear friend, you will be missed.
See you in the next life.

Hugs

My Suitcase - I have heard recent complaints about the system. When you travel to another grid your inventory is blocked except for 1) items you are already wearing and 2) items in "My Suitcase".

At Holoneon we decided to make it user configurable. If you want to turn off the "My Suitcase" feature and have access to your full inventory when going to an HG destination, you can issue a command in local chat. You can also check the status and re-enable My Suitcase using a command.

Here are the commands:

Commands

/19341 suitcase on
/19341 suitcase off
/19341 suitcase status
/19341 suitcase default

"default" turns it "on" (the Holoneon grid default)

NOTE: you have to set your preference _before_ teleporting to an HG destination.
