It is worth visiting... the other statues around it don't really show properly in my photo, but they are fun 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Rufferta 379 Posted Friday at 10:23 PM Share Posted Friday at 10:23 PM (edited) Clue: I can never visit this place without remembering the story by Terry Pratchett, as referenced in ispace "The only excitement in Al-Ybi occurred when the greedy Seriph of the city was cursed by a dyslexic diety so that everything he touched turned into "glod". Glod was a blameless dwarf in a far off mountain community who found herself being dragged to Al-Ybi and relentlessly duplicated. Over two thousand Glods later, the curse wore off. To this day, the people of Al-Ybi have a reputation for being both bad-tempered and short in stature." Edited Friday at 10:25 PM by Rufferta Spellcheck wants to turn "Glod" into "Good".... 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Aethelwine 1,572 Posted 23 hours ago Author Share Posted 23 hours ago Rufferta, it looks like you spent so long looking for the earlier one you have grown a beard ! I do know this one... as a sailor and cruise maker it is very familiar... but I will refrain from answering at least for a while to give someone else a chance 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Sylvia Tamalyn 16,365 Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago OK, I know where that one is, though I'm not sure I have a place to contribute! I'll dig in my landmarks...

Slurl forthcoming once I get in SL again. Correct! Technically known as the Pyri Peaks Funfair Dock. The boat takes you from the island across to the Pyri Funfair, an old haunted amusement park courtesy of the Moles. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

This is the Pyri Box Office, in Pyri at the end of Route 3A. You can pick up a ticket for the start of your journey to the Pyri FunFair. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rufferta 379 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) This is a Michael Linden build. Until today I hadn't noticed the "Corn Field Prize" beside it. This is my 'games' alt - Ruffertasalt, who is impatiently waiting to go back to the latest MadPea game. Edited 1 hour ago by Rufferta Second thoughts, as always. Link to post Share on other sites

Officially it's the Great Wall of Second Life. And yep, the Pyri Box office leads to the Pyri FunFair (they're two different regions, not near each other). Link to post Share on other sites
