I needed something to do today, something to distracted me and keep me engaged from thoughts racing around in my head.  So I took out my note card with the list of sim locations I've been told i must visit, scrolled through it quickly and teleported away, praying that it would be a good one, thankfully i was not disappointed.




I landed on the magical little sim of Bailys Norge and was instantly captivated with the endless photo opportunities it provided.  This little sim was inspired by the city Bergen in Norway, and was designed by the talented and lovely Zaffy Bailey.
"It contains some of the key elements from there, and some things are pure fantasy.  The FLØIBNANEN is an exact replica of the city's tram funicular going up to the mountains, and the colourful houses you see are called Bryggen....the docks or the harbours. they exist" Zaffy said




When asked why she decided to create the place to begin with she said "I didn't want to but my friends made me do it lol.  They wanted to live in Norway on SL"





The sim offers numerous couples locations with interactive objects through out the sim and a few perfect little cafe's to sit, all with a stunning mountain back drop and so much color blended into the scenery that your eye isn't certain where it wants to look first.




This is certainly the perfect sim to capture some amazing photos, to sit and think, or to hang out with friends.  Contact the names above to get rez rights to use your own poses or use the many that are available on the sim, either way, I'm willing to bet with Bailey's Norge, it is impossible to take a bad photo.



This sim doesn't just make my List here, it will certainly be added to my favorites and a sim I intend to keep visiting into the future.  A must see for EVERYONE!

Come Away with Me
Norah Jones



Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song



Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us, with their lies


And I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come




Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you





And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night






Come away with me

Escape into a World of Fantasy



Land in a world of complete make believe.  When i first landed on this sim i thought i wouldn't find a single photo opportunity.  I'm normally not into the whole fantasy cutsie photos, but this place was just too much to resist.  




The sim offered lots of interactive objects that I had never seem before which made it exciting to take some unique photos for my collection.




It was strange though to see that the sim went from the cute fantasy like place to something darker which didn't seem to belong


Still I would recommend a visit to this adorable little sim, would be perfect for pictures of kids.
