Title: Holiday begins now!

So here we are, Planet Denver. The vast majority of it is entirely unremarkable terrain, with the cities dotted across the more habitable locations. It must be summer in this hemisphere - there isn't any snow around anywhere within sight, and according to the gauges it's 28 ambient temperature outside.

I have no intention of staying in a motel, or even a hostel for that matter. Alsatia has VTOL and I plan to make use of it. We're stopping in town to buy supplies but after that I'm flying us out and putting the ship down somewhere with a nice view. I don't think a holiday needs huge sums of money spent on it to be enjoyable - I've got some plans for our time here but I'll keep them to myself for now.

Misaka, on the other hand, seems to be asleep. I happen to have in my possession a permanent marker. Time for evil, I think. I'll report all my wrong-doings tomorrow, assuming I survive.

Title: Day 1

The different passage of time on this planet irks me a bit - according to SUT I should be talking about yesterday, but it's still "today" by Denver time.

First and foremost: Misaka spent most of "yesterday" walking around the ship with whiskers drawn on her face. Never have I met a challenge greater than "not falling over laughing". I felt so bad for the poor thing I eventually folded and told her what the big fuss was. I think she wanted to be mad at me, but couldn't muster the rage amongst all the giggles.

Aside from the whiskers incident, not a lot happened "yesterday". We set the ship down near what I assume to be an underground bore supplying a lake, nearby containing about the only properly green foliage this side of the equator. Our internal clocks tell us it's time for sleep, it's still bright outside and not even close to getting dark. Just how long is a day here?

Title: Day 2

Bugger it, mid-afternoon for us turns out to be around midnight for Denver.

On the upside, the lake we are next to, upon analysis, is perfectly safe to swim in.

On the downside it's cold rather than a hot spring.

On the upside, the cloud cover has kept the heat in overnight, it's still over 25 outside.

On the downside it's pitch black out there.

On the upside Alsatia has spotlights.

On the downside, I don't have any swimwear.

On the upside, Misaka doesn't either.

This should be entertaining.
