5th Annual Street of Dreams Tour, Knights of the White Lady 2015

 

Itinerary with Directions and Commentary

 

Start at the Stable Master in Duillond, ride out to the Falathorn homesteads (For those of you doing the Self-Guided tour: most Stable Masters have service to each of the homestead areas, cost: 5 silver. You will also get used to pushing "M" for maps, as the directions name streets, not N-S-E-W, as I can't tell my north from my east...)

 

Elven:

As we enter Talad-e-Baudh, (note the pattern of the pavers along the way) please proceed straight over the first bridge and stop to greet the first of the Home Furnishers, Barthavron. He's in a rather temporary shelter (they are, after all, leaving for the West). Then proceed to

 

1. Lurelias' Deluxe Elven home at 2 Twinfall Path: straight on, over 2nd bridge, 1st house on left. You are greeted by dueling swan fountains. This home has an elegant entryway. Take special note of the "cat cushion" to the right and furniture from Gondor! Aim your cameras up to the ceiling for a special treat.

 

2. Lurelias' Kinhouse ("Home of Bastion") 5 Waterbank: continue from the deluxe house to "T", turn right, follow down - it's just over the plank bridge. The yard is overseen by the impressive Statue of Anorian and set with several benches. An elf guards the area. A Moria Geode in the entry helps anchor the spaces which are dressed for the holidays. Passage to the left leads to the Meeting Room. The keg room off the meeting hall is of particular interest. From the Geode, stairs to right start a different colour scheme in golds with treasures from Bingo's travels.

 

Please proceed to Thorin's Gate. From Wili, Stable Master, ride out the gate to the right of him, and turn left on the frozen river. (Wili does not offer a taxi service to the dwarven enclave). Follow river's bend to left, then up the snow bank on the right to the Entry. Enter Akafthing homesteading.

Dwarven:

 

Straight in on Threshold turn right on Low Street to visit Rambi the housing furnisher Please stop along the way and angle cameras UP. Reverse course out Low Street, turn sharp LEFT up to Cloven Crescent.

 

3. Bonorviel's house, 2 Cloven Crescent, Akafthing, is just at the top. This is the basic house, with a Mammoth tusk (from Forochel) and dwarven statuary in the yard. The interior has a unique colour choice in the exotic marble walls. Going out, from the yard entrance, look across to the snowy heights.

 

Back down to Threshold and out the gates, return to Breithfel:

 

4. Faern: 4 Stonemirk, Breithfel. At entry, turn sharp right up the stairs, continue up 2nd set of stairs at top turn right up 3rd set of stairs (in 3 sections) turn RIGHT at "T" junction to follow onto Stonemirk. Down stairs, turn LEFT. 2 more sets of stairs, turn right at bottom, end of road: Windmill in yard. This yard is unusually well lit due to the placement of various glowing stone columns. This has been Faern's home for many years, as one of the original founders of KWL, please wipe your feet before entering and...beware the fungal mushroom at the entry. Upon leaving, take a scenic route out - turn RIGHT, then left up the stairs on Cloven Crescent. Viewpoint of the snow area, then proceed left and down to Low, turn left to Threshold and out.

 

Next is Michel Delving. Wili, the Thorin's Gate stablemaster, does offer taxi service there.

 

Please meet at the MD Stable Master, Andfast Tunnelly. He does offer service to the Shire Homesteads, or you can ride out NE to Waymeet, turn right at Waymeet and follow the path thru the Southfaring Gate to the Hedge Entrance. Enter Leafpool, down the hill to the village square to meet Rolf Bracegirdle, housing furnisher.

 

Hobbits:

 

Buggerwow aka: Umpo, aka: Bugric prepared these two just for the tour: Once we leave the Provisioners, ride straight out over the bridge to Brookbank Street.

 

The Exotic Acquisitions kin house (#4 Brookbank) offers a "Winter Wonderland" in the main hall where wall hangings from all over Wintry, Wonderous Middle Earth are on display. Acquisitions from nearby Evendim, Ered Luin and The Misty Mountains to far away lands like Rohan and Gondor are available. Enjoy the replica of a Gondorian kitchen from roughly 500 years ago complete with firepit.

 

The wings of the kin house offer "In From The Cold" where beverages and food selections prepared from our replica Gondorian kitchen are served. Adults please guard your children from the Inn League keg provided - there seems to have been a mixup on delivery and the apple-blueberry brew we ordered was replaced by something...stronger.

 

Umpo's personal house (#5 Brookbank) is decorated for "A Festive Holiday" where he shares items procured from a dear friend, Bingo Boffin; his personal library (please excuse his messy table); and his living quarters. Umpo has also set aside a room in celebration of the life of his friend, the Ranger Candaith.

 

Homes of Men:

 

Port or travel to Bree, West Gate, travel to South Bree by the Stable Master or thru town to the South Gate and out to the Bree-land homesteads (via taxi or hoof) for the end of our tour: Start at theHighdore 'stead's home furnisher: (for those who've never been here - Down Long Street, first right on Garden Street, just past the musicians turn left across the Bridge gets you to the Village Commons. The Provision House is on the left. Bill Twiggins is inside on the left. Then back across the Bridge straight onto Fountain Street. Our kin leader's deluxe home is at the end, on the left behind stone walls (he's a dwarf, y'know).

 

7. Luinori (KWL Leader): 3 Fountain Street, Highdore. Has been redecorated and updated with various items from his travels and travails. This house has a spacious yet "cabin" feel, yet one would never doubt that a Dwarf lives here (see Thorin's Bust!).

 

Please exit Highdore and re-enter Bowing: Proceed down Long Street, we will be passing the kin house of the Courserrim on our left. Turn right on Broadford, cross the stream)...when you reach the village square, turn left and then right up the hill on High Road

 

8. A Trecalia Palace: "Home of the Remediators": 1 High Road in Bowing. Has the dragon yard sculpture - so everyone pull back for their cameras! Please note the large rose bush in the yard. The guards are there to safeguard the instruments stored inside and to keep the musicians in order. Especially drummers. In the meeting hall where the Remediators practice, please enjoy the tapestries on display. The colour scheme is unusual and helps the musicians concentrate on learning their routines. Up the stairs, the gold walls show off the dark Gondorian furniture, the armoires store instruments.

 

For the Finale, please exit and re-enter Farcombe:

 

9. Karanne of the Many Homes: All in Farcombe -

 

1. 3 Garden Street

 

Scott's (passed on to the West several years ago; his homes are maintained by his great friend Karanne:

 

2. 1 Fountain, 2 Fountain, 3 Fountain, 4 Fountain and 4 Garden (at the end of the road)

 

And so concludes the 2015, 5th Annual Street of Dreams Tour. If you have questions about any of the items, please contact the home owners. Good Luck and Good Hunting!

 

(EDITORIAL NOTE: At Falathlorn, Ashi also strongly recommends a side trip to 3 Fairwood Lane in Celephir)
