Goings On In Bellisseria

 
By Gemma Cleanslate

There have been some other happenings on the Bellisseria continent besides the holiday parties. 

The Bureau of Burocracy has moved again to one of the new stilt homes that opened in December. It is a perfect setting for the office which needs room for applicants getting licenses, registrations and passports. I dropped in to visit and found four in line with plenty of room. The onsite manager , Bel (Jezebel Bailey) was there helping out the applicants. She lives nearby in another stilt home so just walks over to the office though mentioned getting a row boat.

The second new venue I dropped in on is the new Riverside Bowling alley. This is an addition to the many fun places to visit on the continent which is growing by the week.  

'ZZ Bottom' (foneco Zuzu) , who has many fun activities going on placed the game on a houseboat . I did not have time to try a game yet but will. Bowling has been a favorite game for years!

I also stopped over at the Bellisseria Citizen’s Group Headquarters to check what is new. The Group is a wonderful group for chat and help to residents all over the continent, old and new. There is also a table with many free gifts for residents. I stop over once in a while to find out what has been added by other residents. This time I picked up two items.. a new jeep type vehicle and a train engine hauling cars filled with necessities.

I made several party stops the last day of the year. The first was to my friend, Jardinalexis NY Pemier Business Center where the crowd was huge and having a great time. I picked up a great 2021 top hat there .

One was to the Windlight Magazine  party where John.(Johannes Huntsman).. was hosting a big bash. Strawberry Linden and Alexa Linden were in attendance.

My last visit of the year was to the last New Year Eve party at the Fairgrounds of Bellisseria . It was a beach party based on one held every year in Rio, Brazil.

The music and decor were themed on  that yearly celebration. The host and DJ, Bela Tolson who sponsored  the party. had us all dressed in white as is the custom in Rio.

At midnight there is a huge fireworks display at the beach and duplicated here and it was spectacular! (The Rio party was cancelled this year as so many around the world were). That was the last party of the year being tossed aside with hopes for a better tomorrow for us all.

The Bellisserian Bureau of Bureaucracy

By Gemma Cleanslate

Everyday brings something new going on in the Bellisseria regions. The bigger the continent gets the more ingenious faux businesses appear. It is great fun living over here .

The latest addition is ‘The Bellisserian Bureau of Bureaucracy”, known as the BBB. So off I went to inspect the office. It is located on a houseboat in Hammerhead Light region and is open to all of Bellisseria. Residents can apply for documents at the office and I did.

 There were a couple of other residents there when I arrived so I took a ticket, sat patiently and waited my turn.  I had a cup of coffee while there.There were even magazines, not too old too. Finally I picked up my application and filled it out carefully so I would not be denied.  Since the entrepreneur of this endeavor was out to lunch I sent it to him to take care of when he came back. (Boo Rojyo) sent me a note that so many were applying I might have to wait a couple days for delivery. That was fine with me. I recall waiting for my last passport for at least ten days and it was a lot more expensive since this one if free.

The very next day there it was in the mail! Amazing!! So official looking and it is a lifetime passport! Now I can visit some of the far off locations in Second Life with no problem.

I also picked up an application for a personalized License plate and will fill that out today. In the future I read that I may be able to get a driver’s license too [if I can stay off the lawns of Bellisseria]. Boo said, "a guy named Roman WeylynAll" will be making them. All can apply if they can verify their residency. If you would like to visit here is the address for the office : Hammerhead Light (73/91/22). Visitors are always welcome even if you are not a resident.

While I was in the office I noticed a poster for the Community Group Consociate that gave me a landmark so off I went to check it out. Here we have another home  that is set up to share all the possible groups available to residents and probably visitors that are interested in joining a group they might enjoy. Iseult Ní Urquhart (PrudenceAnton Resident) and   Cian Wycliffe are running this group. Iseult says “  He is the parcel owner to the Bellis Blues Cafe we both run in Bellisseria.  We  have that location, the Bellisseria Group Consociate and I put out the Bellisseria Parade of Homes and Resident Owned Places of Interest lists twice a month” Busy people!!! 

Joiner links are in the posters of various groups on the wall. I joined a couple new ones. Everyone loves a parade and there is a parade everyday in Bellisseria. If I joined all these groups I would need two premium accounts !!! There is room for more posters of other groups not represented yet. Visit and see what it is all about:
