More Earth Tourism, Tuesday

[unusual_sith]

Lana greeted them cheerfully when they showed up to Portalocity. Hopefully they had all dressed for swimming as she had handwavily emailed them to.

"As land dwellers, we undoubtedly have a bias toward that, but seventy-one percent of the Earth is covered in water, and some of it has quite lovely scenery of its own."

She led them through the portal and onto a dock on a gorgeous beach. "Today we'll be taking a boat out to dive on what's called the Rainbow Reef. Coral reefs are colorful and full of many different life forms, so this should be quite fun!"

She led them onto the boat. "If you're not inclined to go underwater, you're welcome to stay on the boat. If you'd rather not do that, either, you can stay here on the beach, and the resort probably has a restaurant you can grab a bite to eat in."

But she was excited for snorkeling, herself.

Listen to the lecture, look around

Fiji is really lovely.

Lydia had gotten the message about coming dressed for swimming, but had not, in fact, come dressed for swimming on account of the fact that, "I'm afraid I cannot swim."

Also the bathing costumes of her time covered even more skin than her dress did.

Additionally, while the scenery was stunningly beautiful, she might seem to be trying to oh-so-casually inch further away from the sea, so good luck getting her onto a small boat. If anyone else could have heard it whispering, Come away, come away, with every wave that struck the shore they would surely understand.

Class activity

Snorkel! Or stay on the boat or the beach if you'd rather.

Belle wasn't the strongest swimmer out there but she was going to attempt the snorkeling in any case.

Re: Class activity

[wildgalegirl]

Charlie was absolutely snorkeling. In fact, to be totally honest she didn't even need the snorkel. And oh lands was it gorgeous under the water!

Re: Class activity

[mustbeawitch]

Lydia was just going to stay firmly on dry land, that was, the beach. She might go for a walk and perhaps take some photos with her phone.

Re: Class activity

Oh, once it became clear what they were doing for class that day, Eleanor couldn't wait to get into the water.

Hopefully, she'd remember that she would, eventually, have to come back up as well.

Talk to Lana!

[unusual_sith]

She's here!

OOC!

[unusual_sith]

I wanna go snorkeling.

Re: OOC!

Full disclosure... I love the idea of snorkeling, but even standing yards away from water and attempting to breathe through a snorkel gives me a panic attack. So snorkeling and I will never happen.
