Little bit of pre-nostalgia on Safari yesterday, as we had our final meetup on the OSGrid region HG Safari. The sim was gifted by Ange Menges back in late 2021 to give the Safari a regular base (our sim on Francogrid was still in existence at that time, but the grid was in deep decline) and since then, it has been our life-off point for 160 trips around the hyperverse. The closure here marks the start of another adventure on the new HG Safari Grid, which will be our main base starting in the Fall. More about that in future posts.

| Dangers await at the Wild Kingdom ! |
We jumped over to Neverworld Welcome, in a bid to make our arrival a bit easier on the servers. As time has gone by, avies have become more complex, so we take longer to load. But not that much longer...
lifted pixel: you look normal to me
Jupiter Rowland: I might be a wee bit overdressed, but I've arrived straight from a party.
Tosha Tyran: lol, you should see me through MY eyes,
Star Ravenhurst: Everything rezzed fast for me. No nakies
James atLLOUD: ditto - and most accessories are now accessorized.
Thirza Ember: just waiting for a few more to make it here,, the only one I don't see is Alex, we all look pretty, pretty good
