Introduction

Let me introduce myself, my name is Richard Moore.

I travel trough countries with only one purpose: meeting and learning as much from other people as I can!

I've decided to take you on one of my tours, one where you will see everything the world has to offer!

From crowdy cities to the peacfull countrysides, from industrial areas to places where the nature is still untouched.

I'm taking you to Red County.

It's a small district that's located Southern, the climate is hot and tropical.

Our first stop is at a small farmers village called Redberry.

And as you may allready guessed the local specialities are Redberries of course.

Leaving home

I left home and after a two hour trip I arrived at Redberry

I took the first road I saw to get of the highway, which later turned out to be a very wise decision. *Laughs*

SimCity42011-08-1916-16-14-00.jpg

The road leads directly into the village center, that's where I meet the first person this journey.

I asked him where I could stay and he give me the adress of a small hotel.

SimCity42011-08-1916-16-30-58.jpg

It was located at the otherside of the highway.

Once I was there and checked in I noticed the silence, alltrough the village was located directly near the highway you could hear a mice squeak.

I investigated the highway and saw no walls that interupted the sound but then I saw the trees, the space between the highway and the walls was big.

They planted trees between these two and it really got effect.

Lunch

I was starting to get hungry and went to a restaurant where I saw the farmer who I met earlier this day.

He saw me to and invited me to join his table, as sociable as I am I didn't hesitate.

He's name is John Jerfferson, Johny for the friends.

I explained to him what I was doing in the village and he insisted to show me the village and the nature around it.

he took me to his home, a big industrial warehouse located at the edge of the village.

SimCity42011-08-1916-18-44-10.jpg

He tells told me he's the head of the Redberry Factory and owns some fields around the town.

SimCity42011-08-1916-18-33-00.jpg

He works together with a good friend of him.

Aaron Breez, he's the owner of the water purfication station near the North-West of the town.

He also owns a corn factory.

They showed me there irrigation system.

It's attached to a small pond which on his turn is attached to the sea.

This is one of the best views in town.

After we got back I went back to my hotel and tried to get some rest and was dreaming about what tomorrow would bring.

    Southern Axis | Part 1

    I got up early today to travel to my next stop, located North off Redberry.

    It will be a long trip through some green areas.

    Arrival

    After driving an hour or two I saw the sky monsters touching the sky, -I always liked big building, I don’t know why but they give me a good feeling -.

    Anyway, the sun was going down and I hadn’t found a spot to sleep and it was allready getting dark.

    1-2.jpg

    I left the highway and entered the city at the Southern gate.

    3-2.jpg

    Bone County must have a strict policy, every city has got its own water purification station.

    I also passed the head electricity central.

    14.jpg

    The Hotel

    I turned on my GPS to search a good hotel, there are a lot hotels in Axis, so I had to pick one.

    My eye fall on the Precious Hotel and Casino.

    I entered the address and arrived at a huge building, it had fountains, big TV screens and most important, a private parking!

    4-2.jpg

    Once I was settled in my hotel room it was somewhere midnight, my room was located at the 9th floor so I had a wide view and so all those pretty lights and couldn’t wait to discover this city.

    Gambling AYE!

    I got a map from the city in the hotel lobby and asked the receptionist the hottest spots in town.

    She told me that the best way to move from A to B was public transport, the maximum distance between 2 transportation spots was less than 500 meters (0,3 miles).

    She told me the city offers four big casinos.

    Precious

    5.jpg

    Majestic

    6.jpg

    Magic Dice

    7.jpg

    Gold Shaker

    8.jpg

    If you are a fan of slot machines I recommend visiting Gold Shaker, seven floors are filled with almost every slot machine made on earth.

    I wanted to play Black Jack and went to Magic Dice.

    It was easy to get there because there was a bus that drove between the two casinos.

    15.jpg

    The public stations weren’t just box like waiting spots but really modern and beautiful.

    16.jpg

    17.jpg

    After playing and winning, yes WINNING 2500$ I decided to celebrate this, and what’s to best spot to do that? That’s right, a nightclub!

    I asked around to see what was the best club in town and the name ‘The Rumba’ returned several times, so I went there.

    It was already 2:00 AM so I could get in for free.

    After some party time and booze

    I already spend 750$ and that was enough for today, on my way to the hotel I studied the map I got earlier from the hotel. Planning what to visit tomorrow, I must visit the highest building and the old palace on the hill.

    I noticed that there were two small suburbs near the city, one of them is totally independent of Axis, it has his own electricity and water production.

    11.jpg

    12.jpg

    Almost arrived back to the hotel I bought a newspaper, a night newspaper. Apparently fifty percent of the people here live at night, * Laughs* I noticed that!

    In this newspaper was an advertisement from a local boat rental, I should check that out too.

    Enough for today, I’m going to bed! Night all.

    Highest building of Axis.

    18.jpg

    In this part you guys won’t be able to pick a direction, but Richard doesn’t have enough time to visit all spots in town. You guys can choose between two locations he should visit!

    A - The old palace

    B - The highest building

    C - The boat rental

    Rate from 1 to 3, 1 is best.

    Thanks for reading!

    Southern Axis | Part 2

    Wakeup call

    The next morning

    I lay in my bed when suddenly my cellphone started to ring.

    Still feeling bad after the tons of beer and other alcoholic mixes from that night I started the journey to my cellphone.

    After a few seconds I found him in one of my soks.

    It was the guide, he was wondering were I was been, I watched my clock.

    "Holy kwadolie" I said, I was thirty minutes late for the tour to the palace up the hill.

    I rushed myself into my clothes and just when I fastened my belt I noticed my underpands were turned.

    It felt more like a tanga than a boxershort, - okay, this may be a litlle bit too much detail -.

    I hurried to the bus stop with destination Angry Tour Guide!

    The Palace

    When I arrived at the gathering place I noticed all those people looking at me. (I wonder why, okay I'm just 40 minutes late..)

    I told the guide that the fine people always arrive late, he said to me: "Your a funny guy, you better be on time when we leave the palace".

    And finally we left to the palace. It was a trip of 15 minutes climbing the mountain.

    1-5.jpg

    2-5.jpg

    3-5.jpg

    4-4.jpg

    At the top of the mountain we got a tour through the palace, it was build by a prince in the middle of 1712.

    It was untouched after the great war in 1912 and it was still looking very recent.

    The guide told us we should be coming back by night, than is the palace at his most beautiful.

    And I did:

    Castle.jpg

    Tower of Twaign

    I just got back from the palace and refreshed myself. My next stop is visiting the highest building in Axis.

    The building is called Tower of Twaign.

    It's a tourist trap, a very expensive one, 55$ to go up and down in the building.

    A bit too much for my wallet, i got a long trip ahead so I decided not to visit this building.

    Suburbs

    A little bit disappointed I returned to the hotel, than the next stop will be those small suburbs.

    First I visited Accent, the suburb closest to the city.

    Mosaic2-5.jpg

    The next suburb is more special, like I told earlier it's totally independent from the city power and water supplies.

    There are some small windturbines and two watertowers attached to the suburb.

    Its layout is like two diamonds next to eachother.

    The area that surrounds Axis is covered with tropical trees and walkpaths.
