    I have gone back a couple of times since I first came across it, just because I can't figure out the point of tossing us into the water. lol

    I guess you can't 'abuse report' the landscape :(.

    Here is another "Linden mystery" spot. If you try to TP onto the Linden road, it turns out there is a set landing point... under the water! Where am I?

    That IS weird!. I tried to teleport to Yucca, 17,221,30, and ended up in the water. Walking along the bridge you are not affected, but if you are in the water and try to teleport back to the bridge you can't. 

    If this had happened to me when I was doing solo exploring, I would have figured it was my mistake, but I guess it is 'a feature' - sort of our own Second Life Bermuda Triangle?

    Just for reference, I'm wearing an off-the-rack avatar with no extra animations or objects except my "Where the heck am I?" bracelet.

  3. I am admiring the moonbeams in a public/private reproduction of Stonehenge in Corsica. It is in a community with many other attractions, and was part of one of Yukiko Yeshto's Mainland Tours. Where Am I?

    You can find some great views by the Great Wall, but WHERE on the Great Wall am I this time?

    I think this is in Spini, on the East side of the Great Wall.  The 'horned' top wall structure is at 41/147/152.

  5. Some things I have tried to do:

    -match my trees and shrubs to those of the neighbors

    -use ground textures that match the region textures

    -keep outside of builds simple to avoid texture overload

    -introduce myself to neighbors whose parcels are very close

    -try not to terraform my land in such a way that it undermines their builds or return items that are not affecting me (did that by accident last week - apologized - item was a few inches on my parcel way high in the sky)

    -near water, I've tried not to put up a new object just to block my neighbors' views (Perhaps an extreme example of being polite - I once had a neighbor who had their build underwater, very well disguised...for a long time I thought the parcel was empty)

    -keep my political opinions to myself

    -set parcel return to ten minutes, no ban lines, no security orbs on the ground

    That said, I'm sure my list of unneighborly habits is even longer.

  6. Tried to visit today and Zoo is surrounded by ban lines.  One parcel is now listed as "3/31 Simple's Zoo of All Things.." and says owner is Whitney Linden. I know nothing lasts forever, but this makes me sad.

    It seems confirmed that the site was long-scheduled to be closed at the end of March. I suppose now that someone will have to consider whether or not to keep the electricity on.

  7. This is an island off Sansara with interactive exhibits related to earth science. If you want to test yourself, there is a small shed near the entrance where you can pick up a quiz to see what you've learned after your visit. I especially enjoyed the earthquake and the inside of the volcano. Where am I?

    This is a nice old Eric Linden bridge from Feb 2005, to the right the Steampunky, Jules Verney sort of thing protruding from the water is a part of a private owned museum that is worth a visit.

    I originally came to the region hunting for a little railway, it is now just track and a switch in this region now unfortunately

    After looking at bridges on multiple continents, I thought to put "Jules Verne" into Content Search...This is the lovely bridge in Lily, 252/151/62.

  10. Just wanted to add to the thanks to Aethelwine for starting this topic. I have gotten frustrated sometimes looking for a place that "I'm sure I've seen that somewhere!" but have also found new interesting places in the process.

  11. This is a lovely town in Heterocera that has a beautiful mix of city and country. It is flanked by rail- and road-ways, and protects a road between Route 4 & Route 5. It welcomes visitors and photographers, and is, in my opinion, one of the nicer SL Mainland communities. Where am I?

    Note: The mapboard is somewhat misleading - just look for the two routes coming together. Also, Strawberry Singh blogged about this in March.

    With everything going on around this little town, it is easy to overlook.

    This cul-de-sac sits at the base of a Linden park. Where am I?

    This is the end of the Moleway, in Vacit.  6/184/70. It is next to the lovely Oak Hill Park in Streibs. Jeogeot.

    Where might this be?

    This looks like Route 1 in Menorpha, near Yevad Doobie's place, but it seems to be missing a few trees and plants.  Were you using advanced settings to get a better shot?

  14. Sometimes it seems that the current crew of Moles is more interested in creating beautiful places for us to live than in making 'Easter Eggs', but they do still create a few unexpected surprises - and this one is huge!

    It may only be here for a short while, so I'll make it easy - look near Miller's Pond...

    Apologies for not showing more - my selfies with the horse on the balcony and by the yellow LDPW vehicle were censored by the soviet...

    But where am I?

     

    This lovely house is in Meltons - Coastal Waterway - 45/63/35.

  16. This is an unusual little island. At first glance the build looks like a private residence, but it is in fact owned by the Linden Department of Public Works. There are small whirlpools around the shore and the colorful interior of the house is full of items made by Musical Misty Mole. I found the free "Boxed Warlock Costume" I'm wearing in the photo* on a shelf inside. Where am I?

    *Probably the worst skin for the new Catwa head I've tried so far....

    This cave has treasure chests too...

    this surface photo might help locate me...

    That's a nice one. I had seen the rock before, but not the cave and the treasure... Luna Point 37/51/1

    We are not amused. When I opened the treasure chest and the contents said "wear me" I was expecting maybe a gorgeous emerald necklace or suchlike. Instead I get this poor critter who hasn't got enough fat on him for the nearby trypot.  Where am I?

    Added a clue - looking up through the water.
