When you arrive at Greenies, follow the little arrows out of the mouses cave, walk through the dolls house and enter the livingroom of Greenies.

''Gypsy Moon'' is a beauty- and colorful designed sim to relax and hang out. Walk around and have a look at the beautiful plants, the waterfalls, the swan, the huge crystal ball and of cause the gigantic neon flowers. You'll find these when you fly up in the sky and use your camera to get a better view from farer away. Also make sure to have a look at the neighbours sim in the west called ''Moon Shadow''. You'll be able to to rescue the princess Chu Chu who was caught by the evil spider queen. This is some kind of role play adventure while there is damage enabled on this sim. That means, you can die on here. But don't be afraid, since death in Second Life just means that you are send back to your ''Home'' location which might be some Info HUB. You can get back to the island and have a second try to rescue the princess or go on to the next sim if you like. | |||

In the moment of writing, ''The Future'' is still under construction but already very worth watching! It has a unique and interesting transporting system to get you to the exciting places. As seen in the picture, there are many boxes with hovering text, displaying the desired location to move to. Click at the box that shows the places where you would like to go and walk into the beam. If you got ''move lock'' please disable it (if you don't know what a ''move lock'' is, you'll most probably not have it and won't have to worry about this advice). Also, don't try to move or fly while you're transported. You will be pushed through channels and fall to the location. In the moment of writing, this transporting system is still a little buggy. So if the transport fails, just teleport back to the landing platform and try again. <br>Definatly worth watching are the sculpty garden, where wonderfull art is displayed, and the crooked house. When you enter the crooked house, there will be a small crook on the table next to you. Click that one so the house focuses on our avatar. when you now leave the room through any of the six doors, the house will shift so you'll be always surrounded by other rooms. It is hard to describe actually but you will find out ;-) Make sure to use your camera to look at the house from outside and how it puzzles itself. <br> Try to fly around on the sim as well while there are lots of interesting and strange looking things around. | |||

If you need help with the controls of the HUD please have a look at this how to. Furthermore, we added useful information about the Windlight viewer and how to use your camera. These are not required to enjoy the HUD but they might increase your Second Life experience if you have a look at them. In case you don't have a HUD yet and are searching for one: You can get it for free at SL Exchange, OnRez or In-World at Stadtrand (81, 17, 23).
