We're Not in Kansas Anymore

This week I've been a bit under the weather, so I decided to have an easy week, do my mage training, do some sight seeing, and just generally not work to hard.  Hey, everyone needs a break some times, right?


-----
Congratulations and Achievements to me, finally hitting level 20 means I get my game changer, teleport.  Though, again, this was a bit of a let down.  Simply learning from the trainer was a little too easy.  I guess the trial is the need to visit Ironforge, Stormwind and The exodar in order to learn the spell. On the good side, I can now travel back and forth for my jewel crafting.  

I also get to learn a new level of conjure water, and polymorph, as well as 4 other new spells.  Focus Magic, good for party groups, Mana Shield, good in emergencies, and Blink, good for a quick get away.  My personal favorite, Evocation, which will, while channeling, give me back mana without a drink break.

Hard to see, 
but my little tree frog is beside me.

This weekend also was the beginning of the Darkmoon Faire in Elwynn Forest. It's the only place the Faire comes that is safe for me until I hit level 60, so I decided to take some time and go have a look.  In Ironforge, I picked up a quest to turn in a voucher for free tickets, but I didn't find much to do with my tickets, so I traded for a pretty flower (you can't see it, it's one of those off hand items) and caught the running boy to buy a tree frog pet.  I always wanted one, but the only place to get them is the faire.  Cost me 1 gold, but I think he's cute. 
Then I decided to take some time to explore.  Started with Elwynn Forest, the level 1-10 area, before heading east to pick up a flight path in Redridge Mountain.  Then back west to Westfall to pick up the flight path and get the achievement for the zone.

Westfall looks like Kansas. Farms everywhere.

Doesn't sound like much, but now I have enough flight paths that I never have to visit Elwynn Forest again. Until, of course, I decide to come back for the Loremaster Achievement. Right now though, it's a good thing.
