Return from Adventures in Serbia and Romania

My adventures in Serbia and Romania are now in the past. With the exception of a non-working air conditioning in a hotel and the delays on the flight home, the trip went smoothly with many delightful and surprising moments. I never found the Serbia mafia or the Romanian Gypsies, but I did see a hairy Serbian man and say Serbian Gypsy houses.  In fact, based on the Gypsy houses, I think there are more Gypsies in Serbia, then Romania.

Apparently the Gypsies in Serbia go to countries in the EU, collect money, and then come back to Serbia where it is cheaper to live and build big houses.

The best part of my adventures where all my friends. They made my trip fun and easy. Lots of details I wouldn't have been able to take care of due to the lack of my language skills, they dealt with for me. In fact, I let them set the agenda for most places I visited, and I left impressed with what I was shown.

As with most trips, I took hundreds of photos. Many more I will share as I expand on my adventures over the next few weeks, but for now, enjoy one more of my most special friend, Crni.

Regal D. v. Lady Evaine on League of Angels

Well, I have been playing Lady Evaine for a week, so I figured it was a time for my update on a male character v. a female one on League of Angels by R2Games.

Regal's world is still very quiet.  Though his new guild has over 25 people, it looks like only 3 are active, including him.  He did get to chat with the one friend he has on there once this week.  He met a lady in chat who's character no longer had a husband, so he offered himself, but she already had a suitor. So he remains single.

Lady Evaine's life has been a little crazier.  She has many friends, including two who are men playing female characters. One of the members of her guild asked her to marry him. He hardly every spoke with her, so she was surprised by this.  Since she didn't want to end up like Regal she said okay. Then the next day the guild leader asked for hand. She told him she had already been asked, but if her first suitor fell through, he could marry her.

Then the first suitor came on the server. The guild leader told him he was going to steal Lady Evaine away. This did not go well. Hot words flashed all about the chat boxes. Lady Evaine hit the point she didn't know what to say tow home, so the first suitor told the second one he could have her, swore off women, told Evaine all women were monsters, and quit the guild.

Other drama involved Lady Evaine comforting a friend who's League of Angels wife had gone missing for more than a day.

As a result of all this, I awoke, and realized I could have resolved Evaine's problem of two suitors by creating another character on the server. I wish I had thought of this before the fight ensued.  Thus, I have now created a third character, Lady Leona, and we shall add her to our adventures.

Warning:  Do not get hooked on League of Angels unless you have at least 2 hours a night to play.
