Before Felix went any farther in Egypt, I wanted to build up his martial arts skill (and maybe get him Pangu’s Axe, which smashes the giant boulders that block parts of some tombs, or hide certain tombs altogether). So after his third trip to Al Simhara, it was time to visit Shang Simla!
“Check it out: I’m in CHINA!”
“Where’s this Dragon Cave everyone keeps talking about??”
“This old geezer’s going to be my Sim Fu mentor? Shyeah…”
“OK, I guess that old Ai Pei did know a thing or two. Hee-yahhhhoow…”
Felix, wearing his shiny new white belt, is sent to spar with someone who knows a lot more than he does.
Sparring is super cool! ACTION SHOT!
I can’t believe her sister is just sitting there watching the tube with all of this awesome ownage going on.
If memory serves, Felix actually won this spar. And he earned his yellow belt! His sparring partner is like, “Um, could you quit showing off your new belt and get out of my house so I can SLEEP?? Thanks.”
Felix wanted egg rolls, so he got egg rolls. Love the chopsticks! And that lady behind him is about a nanosecond away from sneezing.
“I got my green belt, baby! But oh, the hurting…”
(continued on Page 3)
Grats on finishing! I love the details here. I dont have WA so I live vicariously thru everyone that does. *claps* Yay for woohoo like kings! You go Felix!!
Thanks, Ruby! I resisted WA for a long time, but it’s actually pretty fun.
Great pics, as always!
Oh, whoa, I’ve never seen that visa symbol above their heads when they go up a level! I have to pay closer attention!
In my experience, there seem to be an awful lot of flirty people in the vacation destinations!
Felix looks so proud of himself outside the bistro.
Is that tent a custom object? I’ve never seen it before!
The tent is the Sultan’s Tabernacle, which Sims can buy from the special merchants in France, China, or Eqypt. It costs 2500 ancient coins and gives them the “Slept Like a King!” moodlet, which is considerable!
It looked like you (and Felix) had a lot of fun. So he ended with Visa level 3 in all locations? And he even got his Pengu’s Axe. ROCK ON!! :) So … what was the deal with his “Friend” from Egypt? Was it her or not? Maybe the sun gave her freckles or sumfin? Hehe! Looking forward to more of all your stuffs.
Yeah, I still don’t know if that was really his friend or not. Had the same name, so I guess so? But it really didn’t look like her! Oh well. Weird bug maybe. :)
Way to go, Jen (er, and Felix)! I’m still learning WA, so there’s a heck of a lot I’ve yet to experience, but it’s fun!
Enjoy the experience! Even after doing this challenge, I still have a lot to do in WA. Many tombs to explore, still have to try to summon a mummy, haven’t done much at all with nectar-making, etc.
Stop making me want to cave and go buy a copy of WA! I have been holding out so well! But the pictures you take look so pretty…
Sorry, Audrey. Be strong! WA isn’t THAT great… ;-)
I love your pictures and captions, as always. The pictures always capture the action so well!
Thanks, gethane! I try!
Oh wow, congrats on finishing the challenge Jen! Lol I didn’t even know half of these things about WA before I read this (like the fruit in the tomb in egypt) and my sims have been on vacation multiple times! I guess I’ll just have to explore more ;) I can’t wait to see the second half of Felix’s adventures. Lol and I’ve been trying to be less obsessive over controling my sims – major fail! (your right though, they can be kind of boring when everything is perfect).
I got all caught up doing a new challenge so I haven’t posted Felix’s last bunch of pics yet…will have to do that soon! Hope you’re having fun with your Sims! It really is tough to not micromanage…
