If there’s proof that Second Life is not a game, but a virtual world, it lies in the fact that I just spent my entire week doing chores. I tended to rental units, put finishing touches on the passenger terminal, updated my hot air balloon, and… well I did a bunch of other things too, but I can’t remember. Oh, yes… I did some touch-ups on this website too. I’m hoping to add a help section soon, where I’ll post how-to info and FAQs.
The highlight of my week was revisiting the hot air balloon. This has got to be one of my favourite vehicles. I dropped by the Welcome Area several times and picked up random avatars for an aerial tour of the city and surrounding sims. And thanks to a new feature in the balloon, I was able to hand off the controls to passengers for a bit while I enjoyed the scenery and conversation.
And back in Abbotts, the aerodrome’s new passenger terminal is just about done. The last coat of paint is just drying, and the new one-hour parking lot is open. That’s right, park your vehicle in front of Abbotts Aerodrome for up to an hour while you skydive or fly, or whatever. Drop by to take a peek.
