The Bellisseria Halloween Candy Bucket Hunt is back :)x

It's that spooky time of year again and the great Bellisseria Halloween Candy Bucket Hunt is back !

This amazingly fun hunt for Candy is held all across Bellisseria, where residents put out Pumpkin Candy Buckets and everybody, even if not a Bellisseria resident can collect candy ~ every participant who collects at least one piece of candy will receive a prize and top collectors will recieve limited edition collection bears.

Last year I made it into the top 100 and loved the bears I received, I shall give it my jolly best this year to aim higher...so if you see me running and zipping around...I will be on a mission :)

My own bucket rezzed  and protected by 'The Watcher' at my home in Bingle:

Happy hunting everyone & wishing you all a sppoky Halloween

Visiting 'Tis the Season ~ Winter Wonderland at Moochie in Second Life

  Visiting

'Tis the Season ~ Winter Wonderland at Moochie

It's always a magical experience to visit Moochie in Second Life, whatever the season ... the Winter Wonderland is simply enchanting. Walk through the twinkling forest, snuggle up in one of the many somewhat secret nook sand crannies, enjoy a hot chocolate by the camp fire with friends after having a jolly good go at sledging or ice skating across the rather sizeable frozen lake or grab a reindeer led sled and explore the Wonderland in style. A fun festive market is set up by the lake with lots of produce, festive gifts and treats to choose from. Relax at the lakeside restaurant and take in the seasonal atmosphere with some fine food.

Don't forget to grab the free postcards to send out or keep as a souvenir ... it'll be another year before the magic will return.

I collected some photo memories and created a musical slideshow as a little souvenir.

Everybody involved in bringing this to life really 'went the extra mile' and deserves quite few rounds of applause ~ Thank you to all ~ It was marvellous! 

BBB2B ~ Happy Birthday BBB ~ Three cheers for the Bellisserian Bureau of Bureaucracy on their 2nd anniversary ~ now with added dragons :)

~ BBB2B ~

The BBB is two years old ! The second anniversary started off with an elegant ball ~ great music and great company and the opportunity to meet all the BBB Diplomats and the Ambassadors and lots of other Bellisserians (and, of course, non residents, too). The festivities will last more than a week, over 9 days ( 23rd. Jan.22 - 31st. Jan 22 ) there will be events, workshops, tours; including a Hot Air Balloon Tour and a Boat Rally and an interesting exhibition 'The Art of Travel' with works of some fine artists (gifts, too :) ... a Fireworks displays will start off the proceedings and see them out at the end.

The Meet and Greets are a wonderful way to meet the Diplomats and the Ambassadors ~ everybody is so so friendly, making you instantly welcome ... such is the beauty of the Belli community, such a lovely bunch of souls.

There are plenty of special passport stamps to collect as well, which will disappear after the event and the staff carry ssiDs to hand out special stamps ... a very special stamp is available at the entrance as well to commemorate the event.
