1. Length: ~1 hour Type: Non-lucid I was riding a boat with a whole ton of people. I cannot remember whether they were in my family or not. But I knew that my Aunt <PERSON>, my brother, and my cousin were there with me. So I sort of guessed we were in the same family. We were going to ride boats, and I started to say "I call the front seat". Because everyone knows its the best on a small boat. Surprisingly, no one argued. We got down and I got in a boat with... my cousin, my aunt, and my brother. We rode out first and started doing some loops around a island just offshore waiting for the others. Then they came out. It was like 7 boats packed to the teeth with people. My aunt said "Wow, that many of us...". My aunt then got out and said "Well, you do not have to worry about me, I am walkin'" That did seem like her, always wanting to walk instead of being transported by other means, but it was strange, because I did not even know you could walk this path. Now that is strange in waking life because I had knowledge of a path I would never taken in waking life, but I knew about it in a dream. I feel like I am learning new things about dreaming every night. Anyways, she hopped out and I took the controls, then I blasted away and the others followed me. Then, I woke up. 2. Length: ~20 minutes Type: Non-lucid I opened a shop selling souvenir pictures from my trip to Alaska. I was at home flipping through channels on my favorite red couch (favorite couches never chance, even in dreams). Then my brother walked up to me and offered me some money for the shop. I hesitated, then sold him it. After this, I cannot recall what happened, but I do know that I eventually got it back and he was madder than hell at me. Which is not that weird in waking life. All that stuff gives me and excuse to not have done a reality check. No dream sign, realism (I was even thinking of setting up that "shop" in real life at <PERSON>'s Saturday market!). Anyways... go along now.
This is my first DILD experience that I can recall. All my others have been through SP. I was sitting in my bed and had just opened up a book on lucid dreaming that I have had sitting on my …

This was a really long and interesting night for me. I went to bed late and quite tired, so I could not think of anything related to lucid dreaming, which just made me fall asleep. I only re…

Has this happened to you?
Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
