Waves Resort & Spa, Saint James, Barbados [Wednesday Morning/Afternoon]

It was a beautiful day on Barbados, and the sea looked especially inviting. Who didn't want to enjoy a February vacation in paradise? Truly?

One of the first all-inclusive wellness boutique hotels in Barbados, wellness is at the core of Waves Resort & Spa, which features tranquil surroundings and exceptional service, all inspired by the style of South Beach.

The chaperones have been assigned Ocean Front split-level rooms, and the students have been given Ocean Front rooms with two doubles or a king-sized bed ~~depending on what's funnier~~.

[OOC: Your assignments are here. As always, NSFW posts go into personal journals!]

Seascape has Mediterranean-inspired cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Or try Shiso for Asian fusion or the Kyma coffee bar for cafe items and grab-and-go snacks.

Pamper yourself with wellness treatments like facials, massages, body scrubs, manicures and pedicures. Or visit one of the complimentary fitness or yoga classes before a dip in the pool.

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.

The resort boasts a complimentary on-site fitness center with state-of-the-art machines and complimentary yoga and Pilates classes daily.

Both in and out of the water there's plenty to do!

The 'Platinum coast' of Barbados boasts stunning white sand and crystal-clear water. It's not to be missed!

Yes, another cave. Harrison's Cave Eco-Adventure Park specifically, which boasts a tram tour of the stunning crystalline limestone caverns that gave the park its name, zip-lining, an aviary, and even rum tasting (if you missed out on yesterday's excursion, or just want to go again. Flint.). Don't forget to stop by the gift shop!

Barbados's only botantical garden, Andromeda Botanic Gardens is 8 acres of cultivated gardens with over 600 plant species, focused on community inclusion and biodiversity.

Originally named Jamestown after James I of England, lively Holetown is Barbados' first town.

In Barbados, an exciting mix of local, regional and international flavours are well represented throughout the island. Whether you're looking for a sophisticated five star, fine dining experience or more lowkey and comforting delights, you're sure to find it.

Put your location in the subject line so others can join you!

Brainrot continues.

Vi had grown up around water, and being on the island meant she was even used to the idea of water you didn't have to worry about swimming in, but she still hadn't expected to ever see water so clean and clear she felt like she'd be the one dirtying it if she went in.

Which meant she was kind of awkwardly;y standing on the shore by the edge of the water looking out at it.

It was Wednesday, so Summer was deep in the throes of party planning and jello making, but the nice thing about jello shots? Is that eventually all you had to do with them is just let them sit and chill for a while, so she was going to be using that nice little slice of time to do the same for herself and squeeze in a quick pre-party pampering session before getting back to setting up things in the room.

Surprising no one, Rey was not a luxury shopper so the malls were right out, but she did find a couple little out of the way shops to get souvenirs. Plus the people in those shops were happy to talk some, so this definitely purely felt like the right choice.

After spending the last couple of days hanging out on the beach, Cutter and Connor had decided to try one of the local restaurants, "oh this does look really nice," Cutter remarked as they were seated at a table and given their menus, "what do you think you'll have," he asked Connor.

Ziiiiiiip-liiiiiiine!

Pretty much every single one of Arden's friends was getting a text letting them know that the zip-lining had been found and looked awesome and there were caves and EVEN AN AVIARY to check out.

So that was Arden's day pretty easily sorted: some adventuring with a side of sitting amongst tropical birds and letting them land on her. She wasn't as much a Disney princess as Cal was, but she'd end up cuddling a bird or two at some point.

"I know, isn't it nice? This place just gets nicer and nicer!" Connor agreed as he sat down and picked up the menu to start looking. "It all looks and sounds so amazing... not sure how I am going to be able to choose!"

Kitty would happily grab a buffet breakfast while sipping on coffee. Look how much food there was that she'd never considered for breakfast and she didn't have to make. Getting a seat with a view? Even better.

"It's amazing, isn't it?" Steph asked, coming over and offering her one of the slushy-looking fruit drinks she was carrying. "Spent almost my whole life living by the ocean, and I've never seen anything like this."

Even without Arden's text, did you really think Sir Graham of Daventry would miss out on a place with Adventure in the title? Come on.

He was there and he was stoked for zip-lines and adventures (and maybe to brush up on some bird dialects, too, while he was at it)!
