Bali Hai lagoon, Monday

[cheminthehead.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Bali Hai's most famous lagoon.



You can hire a pedal boat,



or swim into one of the many caves.



The water's warm and welcoming, there are plenty of secluded beaches for privacy, and the sprawling building has a bar, food, and anything else you might need.

[ooc: Today's Bali Hai post! I so want to go swimming in one of those caves.]

Amber was loving the lagoon. It was so beautiful here, she almost hoped the island didn't shift or move again; she could stay here forever.

Jack splashed a "hello" at Amber as he swam by.

[minnesota-teen.livejournal.com]

Amber waved and splashed back. "Hey Jack!"

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

He grinned. "Good to see you!" he said, with maaaybe another splash.

"Amber! I see we both made it to the island!" G'Kar took a seat on the sand nearby.

[minnesota-teen.livejournal.com]

"Hey!" She grinned and came up out of the water to sit nearby him. "It's gorgeous here, isn't it?"

[gkar-lastkhari.livejournal.com]

"Yes. It is quite peaceful."

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka swam up to G'Kar and knelt in the shallows nearby.

"With all due respect, Mister G'Kar, sir," he said -- and then he splashed as much water as he could at the Narn.

G'Kar of course got wet. He said nothing but came over and flopped himself into the water. Spraying it all over Sokka.

"Oh pardon me," he said, bobbing back up. "I didn't think you were that close." His grin said otherwise.

Sokka waved at her as he floated by.

[minnesota-teen.livejournal.com]

Amber waved back, grinning. "Hey, Sokka!"

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka waved back. "This place is GORGEOUS! The island should move more often!" He frowned, considering. "...Or... stop moving. Here. It should stop moving and stay here. THAT'S what I meant."

Mac was finally getting into tropical island mode, which considering they'd been here a week already? She was a bit behind the curve.

This was the sort of activity she could get behind, though. She was currently floating around lazily in a pedal boat in the shallows, listening to her iPod, and generally being lazy.

Anders floated by in his own pedal boat, in swim trunks and a large prominent bandage just above his left shoulderblade that was going to leave a hell of a tan line later.

He waved at Mac with the hand holding onto his camera -- he'd paid waaaaay too much at a tourist-type camera shop for the waterproof casing just now but it was better than losing the entire thing.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac waved back at him with a little grin before tugging her headphones out of her ears.

She shaded her eyes with her hand as she looked at him. "What did you do?" she asked bluntly.

If there was anything that might make Adah lament the fact that she couldn't swim (besides, of course, her extreme fear of drowning one day), it was those caves, although, if she thought about it too much, thought of not only drowning, but also drowning with oppressive walls of rocks around you...

...well, it didn't take much to convince Adah to sit at the edge of a rather shallow spot, dipping the toes of her good foot into the water as she quietly read, actually enjoyed the sunshine, and tried to make up all the sorts of awful diseases that any bugs she noticed might be carrying. She did notice, as well, that, really, for the location, the insect count in the air here was surprisingly, almost unnaturally low...

With no classes for a few days, Lee found himself out and about, trying to get some sun on his skin.

And, once he spotted Adah (he could pick her out easily now), he wandered over and sat down next to her, a towel over his shoulders and both feet in the water.

"I think I'm going to rename you," he said without preamble. "Beach Bum."

[ecirpnellehada.livejournal.com]

Adah grinned lightly and idly flipped to the next page of her book. Her eyes didn't leave the pages in the slightest, but her mind certainly did. Her head tilted, an expression to appear rather interested in the start of the next page, as she asked, "Do I get to change your name to Stalker?"

Jack ducked out for a few hours to explore the island a bit, enjoying the view.

[ambassadorinara.livejournal.com]

Inara's breath caught as she saw the caves, and within minutes she was stripping down to her swimsuit and tying back her hair, enchanted and drawn to the clear water and fascinating caverns, unlike anything she'd seen before.

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Out of nowhere, Sokka surfaced a little ways down the cave. "Check this out," he whispered to himself. He looked around at the rocks, grinned, and called "HELLOOOOO!" so that it echoed.

[ambassadorinara.livejournal.com]

"Hellooooo!" Inara called back, walking into the water, then diving under and surfacing.

Lion-o who is much younger than he appears in the icon really enjoyed swimming, so he was happy.

The lagoon was clear and just comfortably cool as Mohinder sat, trouser legs pushed up and feet trailing in the water, on the side of jetty.

After class Naomi made her way out to the island, she decided that she wanted to have a go swimming in one of the caves.
