HOW I SPENT MY SPRING VACATION

by Jessecka

Imagine my surprise and elation when the announcement went out to all the newsdroids that we were getting a 2 week, spring vacation! Two weeks of total abandonment, no articles to write, no event write-ups to slave over! I immediately began checking out the local beaches and working on my tan! I found two glorious beaches right close to home.

Maji, in the Ciel system, has one of the most usual beaches I have ever seen. Surrounded by a red hillside, the beach sand itself is a dark red color, turning to the color of blood when it gets wet. When viewed at sunset, the view is stunning. The planet itself is a little empty, causing some to wonder if something is wrong with it, but I in fact enjoyed the solitude. The soft white sand of Lair, in the Secret system, was quite a contrast to the red beaches of Maji, and surrounded by jungle, felt quite exotic. The sand itself was so soft and fine, it felt like a lover's caress as I ran my fingers through it.

Once I tired of the sand in my... errr, crack, I headed back to Rome, in the Empire system. A beautiful garden lies there, to ease the tensions of a stress-filled day. Also, for those who feel the need for a little more tension easing, the Roman Bath there is wonderful, although the favored attire for the Bath is nothing, so be prepared to see some muscles! Another wonderful place with warm water and plenty to drink is found in the Hot Tub on Whiskey Map, in the Havefun system. Havefun explains it all!

When I decided to actually get out and do something, I caught one of the Geisha shows on Namazu, in the Pacifica system. Those girls are so lovely, and quite talented, or so I've been told! And then, when I decided that I just wanted to sit and enjoy the sky, I ran over to Alba Two in the Iberia system, and slept for a time in one of the comfortable hammocks.

Mostly I did nothing on my Spring Vacation, and it shows, since now I will be working all night, burning the midnight oil to catch up on all my assignments that I let slip these past few weeks. Well, so much for soaking in my hot tub in the Vultures Club on Renglor!
