Atlantis Resort - Tuesday [Adventures]

After a perfect first day lounging on the white beaches, Atlantis beckoned to its guests, calling them to explore and experience the adventures of a lifetime in its many amazing aquatic activities. The time was right to try something new!

It wouldn't do for guests to forget that it's better in the Bahamas!

I feel awesome after a bottle of wine last night. \o/

Don't... don't ask how he'd been talked into this.

Just don't.

Cable was writing it off as a survival exercise; Jan was having the time of her life splashing around.

Cable just hovered.

Most of the time, Jonas didn't like to jump in without assessing new situations but this was something he just couldn't pass up. After being absolutely fascinated by the creatures in the exhibit, he'd gotten enough courage to actually decide that he wanted to be even more up close.

So, even if the goggles and snorkel made him look silly, there was no denying his excitement at getting a chance to do something he'd never thought he'd do.

Jack was mesmerized by the displays of artifacts and by the colorful sea creatures. He reached out to tap a finger against the glass, curious what reaction he'd get, then and jumped back himself when a ray came at him.

Hoping no one had seen him flinch, he tucked his hands firmly behind his back as he roamed the rest of the aquarium.

That bottle of wine is why I have a cat now. :P

Having so far dismissed the water park, shopping, food and the casino, Angela was still looking for something that would actually interest her.

This would not be it. She walked around for ten minutes, scowling at all the fish, and finally complained, "This is boring."

Grotto Pool

Bod was still a little leery about spending a lot of time in the sun considering his pale skin but this place and this pool were absolutely amazing so he decided to risk.

Shirt off, Bod slipped into the pool, wading easily and splashing water on his face to get accustomed. The waterfalls were drawing his attention and he headed towards those.

Loki wasn't typically one to do shit like this but even he was overcome by the adorableness of the fucking dolphins. He slipped into the shallow end of the water so he could get himself geared up for a deep water swim.

He'd been alive a fucking thousand years and never gotten to swim with dolphins. Really couldn't turn down the chance now.

Having been to planets like Ithor and Mon Calamari, you'd think something like a marine habitat on Earth wouldn't be that much of a source of fascination for Tahiri. It was, though, for much the same reason as the beach intrigued her. Everything was new and different these days, like she was rediscovering the entire universe.

If she occasionally stopped and stared in at a school of fish with something close to reverential awe on her face, it really was what she felt: both the Yuuzhan Vong and Jedi parts of her had a deep and innate respect for life in its many forms, and finding the balance between them got easier every day.

Jonas didn't want to disturb her but seeing someone looking at the habitat in a similar fashion to his own fascination was going to draw his attention.

"Are you going to go in?" he asked quietly, staying a few steps behind her to try and prevent any sudden surprise.

It was hard to suddenly surprise a Jedi, but the way Tahiri was staring at the marine life, this time it would be very close.

"I don't know," she answered with a small smile, turning to look at him. "I'd love to see it up close, but I've never really learned to swim."

"It doesn't look all that deep," he said, peering past her to gauge the depth of the water, "but I'm probably an awful judge of that sort of thing. I can't imagine any of the employees would let anyone fall into danger."

Jonas winced though, wondering why he'd decided to just come out with the possibility that there was danger but he shook it off. "I don't swim either but I still think I want to try to go in."

"No, I suppose not," Tahiri agreed. And it was pretty stupid to keep falling back on her inability to swim, wasn't it? That was another old bad habit it was past time to break.

She took a breath and nodded. "Want to go in? Between the two of us, we could handle it, I bet."

"Yes," he said instantly, glancing past her into the aquarium and then back to her. "I'm Jonas. Since I won't be able to tell you anything like that underwater, I thought I'd mention it now. So you don't wonder."

Jonas didn't babble often but, when he did, it was rather mundane and laughable.

Really, let's be fair. The bottle of wine and this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Bmhjf0rKe8) are the reasons behind the cat.

...I just wanted to post it again.

Dinah was thrilled to be able to get into one of the early groups, and was bouncing on her toes, waiting her turn to go in and swim with the dolphins. Eeee!

Sookie was almost afraid to go play with the dolphins. But she also figured that not only would they not hurt her, but she'd regret it forever if she didn't try this.

So she was a bit timid when she first joined a group, but by the time she was able to actually pet a dolphin (it smiled at her!), it was like she was a natural.

The Current

Puck liked rides and so forth where he didn't have to exert any effort himself. So today, he got himself an innertube to ride around in this current thing.

The ride was bumpier than he expected, so there was more than a few moments during which Puck frantically looked around to see if anyone had seen him topple out of the tube. Thankfully, no one hot seemed to.

And that was just fine. She'd babbled nonstop about anything and everything when she was younger; it wasn't like she could judge.

She grinned more openly at him in response. "And I'm Tahiri," she answered. "And it's probably a good thing we know each other's names now. I don't think speaking through a snorkel works too well."

"I think we'd end up choking on water," he agreed, wincing. "And while water is certainly needed, I think that way of getting water would be uncomfortable."
