My Polar Getaway

My Polar Getaway - Polaroid

Living in the Canary Islands the only way to have "White Christmas" for me is to ride my car to the top of our volcano and hope for snow to fall that day. That is the reason I enjoy so much all of SL's snowy sims, all your snowy pictures and all of the wintery decor available. From fireplaces, which are pretty stupid to have where I live, to snowy tress outside, every teleport is an adventure for me at this time of the year.

But thanks to "The Arcade" and specially to Winter Thorn from What Next, I have my very own Tropical Polar Getaway this year, where I can finally feel cold, wear cozy clothes and feed the penguins. Penguins???? Did I say penguins? omg omg omg *screams around excited*.

Penguins are my second favorite animal right after cats, I think this is the reason I chose to have lovebirds at home too. When I was I child I always told my mother they were penguins that finally learned to fly, and you may laugh at the naive 9yo Giela but if you ever see how my lovebirds walk and play with me, you will relate to her.

Well, Aime Takaaki from *MishMish*  made my wish come true this year, I finally have my very own Penguin family. Well, to be honest I must say they are not really mine; they just hang out at my place because I feed them every day, I buy them toys and I even allow them to enter my igloo from time to time. In exchange they help me with Xmas decorations, since you already know I am terrible at this, and I must tell you, if you have never slept with the penguins, this is something you must do at least once in your SecondLife.
