This year the entrance to the Calas winter sim is very different and made us all look for the portal . It is a craggy stark icy place at the start. I skated across across the ice to the cave entrance, passing dropped toys on the way and down the crystal adorned path into the room with the portal that takes you to the glorious ‘A Christmas Poem’. The sound of joyous giggling elves fills the air along with the lovely music. I made my way up the stairs and through the portal where you will enter into a magnificent land of wonder.
The Pavilion is there on the hill above the skating pond in all its regal glory, guarded by the giant Nutcrackers.In the great hall there are gifts on the tables for Calas members. Parties take place often in this great hall
The tree room to the right is packed with wrapped presents under the tree and all around the walls. Santa is in his chair ready to take requests. .Across from the tree room is the sitting room with a crackling fire where friends gather for food and drinks and talk. I often find at least one of my friends there. Outside the pond usually has skaters gliding around or hanging out by the fires .
I saw Chatty Kathy, A long time member of Calas Galadhon group hanging out by the refreshment stand having coffee. There is a wonderful balloon tour up the hill that gives you an overview of the entire region. A sleigh ride will take you down the snowy lanes through the snow laden trees.
OR ....“Comet: Comfy now? Welcome to this years Flying Reindeer Tour! Santa doesn't call me 'Comet' for nothing. I've hit 5 balloons so far and counting. Oh, I forgot .. Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now, Prancer .... um Now Cupid, no Blitzen. Oh Now dash away!Dash away! Dash away all! Hold on” . ...Take the Reindeer ride! I learned that Comet and the others got their names in 1823.
There are wonderful photo opportunities for couples and singles and you can pick up a notecard near the sleigh rides that will guide you to all of them. The owners of Calas Galadhon Ty Tenk and Truck Meredith make this special Christmas region every year for our enjoyment so if you pass a donations box try to put a few lindens in. The events list is on the website https://calasgaladhon.com/tag/
Begin your travels to the wonderous site here . Head for the caves. The music will keep you company on your way and the windlight will aid you and enhance your experience.( I cheated a bit to get pictures for you )
