So here we are in the Bahamas, staying on Paradise Island at the Atlantis. After much drama at the airport yesterday, we ALL made it here, together. We arrived yesterday afternoon around 4pm and had all night to chill. Unfortunately, today I was sick and had to spend the day in the room sleeping, but thankfully I am feeling better now. Tomorrow morning sometime between 10am and 12:00pm I board the ship. Surprisingly right now, my stomach is fine, I’m completely calm and relaxed, (I’m just a little hungry) but who knows how it will be tomorrow morning though. Tonight my parents and the Demeter’s went to a parent reception on the ship, for parents only, students weren’t allowed on. They were amazed at everything that the ship had to offer and were jealous that they ... read more

No. I am not on the way... Unfortunately I have not travelled for awhile, but now I have a bit of time at my hands, so I decided to sort out my old pics and show it to you :o) I hope you'll like it. The first of many destinations, which I post, is in the Bahamas..... The long lost Atlantis, rediscovered and redreamed by Sol Kerzner, who has also built the famous Sun City and Lost City in South Africa. The most amazing thing about Paradise Island ( formerly knows as Pig Island) where the Hotel/Aquapark/Casino komplex has been built is The Cove, the amazing -and of course worlds largest- aquarium, home of many interesting species. The first time I have heared of Atlantis, was on board M/Y Java, where I've been working as a ... read more

Day 1! We were supposed to be at the airport at about 6:00am for a 7:00am flight, but our flight was postponed until 10:00 am. A few extra hours of sleep, but that meant reaching the island later. Oh well. We decided to leave for the airport at about 8:00am instead. We reached a rental car place and dropped the car we had been driving in off there. Then we waited for a while and took a bus to our terminal where we grabbed coffee and muffins at Starbucks and a bagel from Au Bon Pan for lunch on the plane later. The plane took off at about 10:10am, pretty much on time, and the ride was about 3 and a half hours overall, which seemed like forever considering the adventures we were anticipating. My aunt ... read more

Us girls wanted to go somewhere fun, with lots to do, and to just chill and relax, so we thought let's go to the Carribeans!!! After seeing images of The Atlantis Hotel and Dolpins, we knew it had to be Bahamas, and I have to say it was definately one of the best experiences of my life!!! There was so much fun and laughter, I'm surprised I didn't die of it!!! So Vix and I are in Heathrow, and I noticed that I didn't have a ticket Vix did, so I told the ticket desk and they said that everything was fine and I wouldn't have any problems. When we arrived in Miami, I wasn't allowed to check-in to our flight to Bahamas because of that missing ticket! After argueing for what seemed hours, I ... read more
