Sure, the beach is right there. But maybe you fancy a dip in some chlorinated water instead? Or you want to check out the adults-only spa pool.

There wouldn't be much luck in getting Rey into the water, but she still loved the beach, so she'd definitely go on a long walk on it. She was pretty sure she hadn't seen this color blue in real life before, she'd do as much looking at it as possible.

Anakin never said no to an activity that was mostly sitting in one place and learning, especially when it ended at a bar.

Re: Beach

[fears_no_one]

Did Flint look very much at home, striding down the beach in his boots, breeches, and white shirt? Yup.

Was he being stopped by kids to have a real dressed-up pirate sign autographs?

Also yes.

"Miss Skywalker," he said with a little nod.

Re: Beach

[thatwaslucky]

"Captain Flint," she said, just because she could. "You look like you fit right in."

Re: Island Safari

[noonedecidesmyfate]

This seemed the perfect sort of way to start off the trip (yesterday had been settling in and that didn't truly count). So once Belle had had breakfast she headed for the safari.

Re: Beach

[fears_no_one]

"I've been to Barbados before," he said. "It looked different, but the water is familiar."

Re: Island Safari

[pun_king]

If you asked Graham, the words safari and adventure were practically synonymous, and so you better believe he was there with his cloak and adventurer's cap, ready to see the island and all it had in store...

...at first glance, anyway. He was definitely going to be making mental notes to insoure further adventures as the week went on!

Re: Island Safari

[intheeyeofthebeholding]

He had all of that (bar the bar) in common with Jon!

Who nodded politely to the dean as he took a seat.

Re: Beach

Rey frowned, and then said, "I don't know why I'm surprised. But I only ever heard about Nassau."
