First, Isis Ophelia's grid. Arcana. This grid is just exquisite. It's based on Epic Castle (here's a link to Austin's excellent blog post on the subject) plus extras from Kitely Market, and of course original touches by Isis herself.

Safari goes Under the Radar
Small grids!
Hypergridding was made for them. We visited three outstanding examples this week. All three are open 24/7 and are worth visiting by yourself for their art, charm, freebies, music and information. Full HG Addresses at the end of the post.

Zan and the art of Hypergridding
So now we know.
The secret to an absolutely perfect Safari where nobody loses their hair, gets lost or freezes or has chat lag is... to predict that everything is going to go horribly wrong and we all need to be ready for multiple crashes.
Or was it the fact we were all invited to keep our attachments to a minimum?
Hmm... it might be that, but we all looked stunning either way, so I'm not sure who paid attention to the 'low lag' dictum.
Making rules about what people can do or bring on Safari would defeat our main purpose, which is that the grids and regions should be the ones that toughen up for the onslaught of visitors, not the visitors pussyfoot around the sims. That may sound selfish, but it is done with love - love of making places visitor friendly, because visitors and appreciation and networking are the lifeblood of any community.
Plus nobody actually reads the notecard, so it would not work anyway.

Teravus Plaza keeps losing its prims. The clubhouse is next to the hill on the right. |

Radiola
There is something of the divine at Radiola.
It is a land that provokes lightheartedness and a light step.
Tread carefully, for you tread on dreams. And what dreams may come, after a visit to Livio Korobase's small OpenSim grid, Radiola, remain to be discovered with the closing of your eyes. But first, eyes open, senses on alert. This is a whimsical, sometimes mystical, place of impossible beasts juxtaposed with strange and familiar shapes.
Turn on the radio.
Real music flows and sews the installation together. Flying up into the uncluttered sky, you will find a building, an industrial basilica, perhaps dedicated to the Patron Saint of AC, St. Tesla, with its sparking mast, a sort of child's windmill, electrified.
Radiant.
