The Untroubled Sound - Memories of NZ

Opening the showcase I was excited to find The Untroubled Sound.
Home of the Southern Cross Marina and The Shipwrights club, the gardens and surrounds are open to chill and relax.
This Sim has been themed on The Marlborough Sounds, South Island, NZ.

Being that I used to take the inter-island ferry from Wellington to Picton often for day or weekend trips I had to go see what they had done.  I wasn’t disappointed.



The club layout was unique...
Something I don’t say often with clubs in SL. With DJ Laurence spinning deep house from 4pm on Fridays I will definitely be back for a look. 



7Seas is available for the fishing devotees (a store is in the fishing supplies shed at the end of the pier).



As I wandered around the foreshore and saw the flora it brought back memories of childhood when a group of friends and I would play chase in and out of the toi toi. 



Climbing over the barbed wire fences also brought back memories of green pastures, and quiet coves. 


The DOC (Department Of Conservation) Hut is open to for overnight stays.

I have been away from NZ for 23 years and this is the first time I have felt homesick.  The sim owners nailed this sim.  Perfect.
Please leave a note in the guestbook located in The Shipwrights Boatshed.
