Vibe night 17 and (seperately) Lucid 27

Did another vibe nite immediately after my success with #16 but no lucids, a couple of times the vibe hit just after a dream had ended - so just unlucky I guess.

Last night took the night off (got a bit of a cough from the previous cold which is distracting) but got another lucid anyway which was great!

Lucid 26
Got woken up at 4.30am by our daughter coming into our room wanting to sleep in our bed! Wife and I both got up and took care of this 'emergency' situation and then went back to bed.

At 5.20ish I was in a dream that I was in a field looking at the overgrown cavea (seating) of a roman chariot circus (think Ben Hur). It looks like two parallel massive mounds of earth (the buried seating stands) with a large alley inbetween where the chariots would have raced. I am suprised that I didn't know this was here - as I thought I knew of most of the Roman remains in the UK. Happy with the unexpected find I wander up the grass covered ruin. Behind me I hear a man scrambling and I look back and there is an old man who is excavating some roman pottery remains from the buried site. I look down and spot some samian (red coloured) roman pottery by my feet and dislodge it. I then walk along the buried remains and spot 3 other objects which are superficially buried - including a womans bust. 2 things strike me as odd, all these pieces are the SAME as what the other man had found (but buried in a new location) and the 3 are just too good to be true, I vaguely think they might be fake but then I realise that this is a dream! It makes much more sense this is a dream and I vaguely do a RC check with my watch but it seems almost unecessary as it is now obvious this is a dream. I decide to do what my next plan was - to fly (I forget to ask the DC who my soul mate is unfortunately), so I run along the flat between the overgrown ruins and lift up easily into the air, unfortunately as I am doing this the dream goes greyish and cartoon like but I am kindof stuck floating in mid air so I can't spin or feel anything tactile under me, I forget rubbing my hands and make the most of looking around at the horizon and surroundings trying to soak it all in before it slowly fades out - cool but not as an amazing spectacle as that blazing alien sun from the other night.

So good things - got another lucid (yay!), didn't wake instantly (yay!), remembered part of my plan (tick) but still lots to learn about stabilization (should have done this first).

so I am going to try and work on this some more, just need to work out a good consistant strategy to stay in the dream - not getting overly excited and having a plan def help, so does tactile stimulation so maybe I've just got to keep doing all these three things together.
