The Banana Alphabet - O is for Olive

I'm doing a series. I'm making my way through the alphabet and entering in to search a word that starts with that letter. Where I'll end up is anyones guess. Today, O is for Olive.

I didnt know what to expect when I typed in Olive. I knew I'd find Olive Juice (poses) and I Love Olive (Hair), but who knew that I'd end up at a train station?!

And who knew that SL had a railway? Let alone the Great Second Life Railway. Methinks that whoever started this off, had visions of grandeur - where all the SL sims would be joined by this fantastic railway, and people would come for miles to tour the scenery. I admire the idea, and it must've seemed like a good idea at the time... but someone forgot to follow-through as it only covers seven sims. But what the hey - I'm in!
First things first, I'm gonna need a train. Lucky for me, I've landed at the right spot. Wear the throttle, and rez the train. Done. Err - I dont think this is how is 'sposed to go. Right-click ride. How do I drive this thing? After a quick read of the instructions, I find its pretty easy. Type 'align' in to chat and the train jumps on to the train tracks. Arrow forward! Lets try and steer this thing... Oh shit. Time to type 'align' again. I'll get the hang of this, I promise! Yayyyyy!But be warned... sim crossings can be a bitch. But once you're back on track (excuse the pun) the scenery was cool! ...and even tho the track was only a few sims long... ...and the track can be a bit tricky at times... ...by the time I got to the end of the line... ...I was in fits of laughter.
Well worth the experience! Check it out :)

3 peeps had something to say:
