A/N: ~I tried to be as accurate as I could on the estimation of time on the
flights. The descriptions of Atlantis I've been inside the place, but
never stayed there, and Hartsfield and everything are fairly accurate. If
you want to see more go to www.atlantis.com to see more about the place. I
tried to be as accurate as I could on the descriptions of the Bahamas and
stuff, I was there in December so it's been a while.

After boarding the plane, Kim and Bobby sat looking out at a bustling La Guardia International Airport.
"So, are you going to tell me where we are staying or will I have to wait till we get there?" Bobby asked laughing.
"It's a surprise." Kim replied smiling.
"Ok, just tell me one thing," he said back to her.
"Depends on what the one thing is." She replied as she turned in her seat to face him.
"Is the place we are staying at nice?"
"Most definitely." She replied grinning.
Just then the plane lurched forward as they began to taxi down the runway. In a matter of moments they were in the air and flying towards Atlanta Georgia.
"So how long of a layover do we have in Atlanta?" Bobby asked.
Kim pulled out her packet of information and said, "We've got a two hour layover. So we can grab a bite to eat in the airport before we catch our flight."
"Sounds good." he replied, looking out at the midnight sky.
Just then the captain turned off the fasten seatbelt sign and Kim reached down and pulled out her CD player.
"I'm going to take a short nap, so wake me up before we land in Atlanta." Bobby said as he tried to get comfortable.
"No problem." Kim replied as she placed the headphones on her head and turned on her CD player as she glanced over at Bobby who had just closed his eyes for a short nap.
Kim looked out at the darkened sky and began to think about the day's events. She glanced down at her hand and looked at the wedding band she now wore. She began to wonder what the future held for her and Bobby as they began a new chapter together as husband and wife. Two hours later the captain came over the intercom and made the announcement that they were fifteen minutes away from Hartsfield International Airport in Atlanta. Kim looked out the window as they flew over what appeared to be an interstate and watched the cars bustling in both directions. She took the headphones off and placed her hand on Bobby's shoulder to wake him up.
"We are landing in fifteen minutes," she said as he turned to look at her.
"Jeez that was a quick flight. How long have we been in the air?" he asked her.
"A little over two and a half hours." She replied as she watched the sky begin to lighten as dawn approached.
After the plane had come to a stop outside the terminal, they got their carry-on bags and headed to the front of the plane. When they stepped off the plane and headed into the airport the size of it was unbelievable. They headed from concourse C to the monorail system that would take them to concourse B that was a quarter of a mile away from where they had disembarked. Several minutes later they arrived and went to one of the restaurants in the airport and had breakfast. After locating the gate they were to go through to board their flight from Atlanta to Nassau, they sat and talked as they waited for the plane to begin taking passengers.
Close to an hour later passengers were finally allowed to board the plane that would carry them to Nassau. They went through the gate and stepped onto the massive airliner and took their seats in the middle of the plane. Kim got her CD player back out and placed it in the pouch in the seat in front of her and passed her bag to Bobby to be put in the overhead storage container. Twenty minutes later after all the passengers had boarded they sat fifth inline to take off. Morning was just starting to break over the clouds as they prepared to take off. Once in the air, they began to talk about what they wanted to do when they arrived in the Bahamas. They looked out at the open ocean and the wisps of clouds and sighed, reviling in the tranquil appearance from the air.
Two hours later they looked out at the crystal blue waters surrounding Nassau Island from the air. It was unlike anything they had ever seen before. After landing on the island they left the plane and headed to get their luggage and prepared to go through customs. Approximately ten minutes later they were cleared by customs and headed to take a bus over to Paradise Island that was going to their hotel. As they crossed the massive bridge connecting Nassau and Paradise Islands, Kim spotted Atlantis looming on the horizon.
"Look over there," Kim said as she pointed in the direction she was referring to.
"That is one hell of a resort." Bobby replied, staring at Atlantis.
"That's where we are staying." Kim whispered into his ear.
"Are you kidding me?" Bobby said in shock as he turned to look at Kim.
"Nope, that's where I made the reservations at." she replied smiling.
"This is incredible," he said amazed, as he pulled out the video camera they had brought and began to film their surroundings.
Several minutes later they turned up the drive that would take them to the massive hotel before them. As they cleared a line of palm trees, they saw a beautiful gold Pegasus fountain in front of the hotel right across from a large marina full of expensive yachts. The bus came to a stop and those staying at the hotel got off and got their luggage and tipped the driver before heading in to check into their rooms. When Kim and Bobby walked through the giant doors of the hotel, they looked up at the domed ceiling with murals depicting the rise and fall of the mythical sunken city of Atlantis.
After checking in, they headed over to the elevators that would take them to the floor their room was on. They walked down the corridor towards their room after getting off the elevator and finally stopped in front of their room. Kim put the card key in the door and opened it once it was unlocked and walked into the spacious room, which had a magnificent view of the ocean. She placed her things by the closet and went out onto the balcony, taking in the sites in awe. The crisp salty ocean air danced across her skin as she inhaled deeply, relishing the moment. Bobby put his things down and joined her out on the balcony and said while laughing, "Boy are the guys back home going to be jealous."
"Oh, you know they will be." she replied as she looked out upon the crystal blue water crashing against the white sandy beach.
After standing on the balcony taking in the entire landscape they both headed back inside to unpack the suitcases.
"How on earth did you find out about this place?" Bobby asked as he began unpacking.
"I saw a thing on TV about how they built this place and it was fascinating. So I decided if I ever got a chance to come here, this is where I wanted to stay." she replied smiling.
Once she'd finished with her suitcase, she unpacked all the toiletries she'd brought for their stay and placed the empty bag in the closet with the suitcases.
"What do you want to do, now that we are finally here?" Kim asked as she sat on the bed beside Bobby.
"How about we kick back for a bit and relax, then go down to the beach." he replied softly.
"Sounds like a good idea to me," she replied smiling.
The two stretched out alongside one another as they listened to the relaxing sound of the waves breaking on the beach, with an occasional squawk of a sea gull every now and then. Both fell asleep a short time later and slept for about four hours. Kim was the first to wake up and slipped out of Bobby's gentle embrace and went to slip into a bathing suit for their trip to the beach. After slipping into a lilac Nike two piece bathing suit, she tied a matching wrap around her waist and picked up the video camera to get some more shots of Atlantis from the balcony of their room. Bobby woke up thirty minutes later and saw Kim out on the balcony, the wind whipping her hair back off her shoulders as she recorded the scenery around them. He pulled out a pair of swimming trunks and a white sleeveless shirt and changed before heading out onto the balcony.
"You want to go to the pool or the beach first?" he asked as he kissed the side of her neck.
"Lets head down to the beach first," she replied, her skin feeling as if it were on fire from the kisses Bobby placed upon her neck.
She turned off the video camera and followed Bobby back into the room, where they packed a small bag of things to take with them to the beach. After putting sunscreen, the video camera, room keys, and a couple other various items, she grabbed the sheet she'd brought from home to take to the beach and headed for the door. After a brief elevator ride back down to the lobby, they stepped outside and made their way towards the West Beach. After finding a spot on the white sandy beach, they placed the sheet on the ground and Kim put the bag she was carrying in one corner as she sat down facing the ocean.
"So tell me, have you ever been here before?" Bobby asked as he glanced over at her.
"No. I've never had the opportunity to come until now." she replied smiling back at him as she pushed a strand of her hair back off of her face.
A strong breeze blew in from the open ocean as Kim and Bobby both lay side by side relaxing to the sounds of the ocean while taking in the rays of the Caribbean sun. Several hours later, Kim got up and headed down to the waters edge to cool off for a bit. After spending ten minutes in the crystal blue water, she rode the waves back into shore and made her way back up the beach. As she sat down next to Bobby, she noticed that his chest was starting to turn a little red.
"You might want to go take a swim, your starting to turn red," she said as she stretched out on her stomach.
As he got up to head down to the water, she returned to her own little realm while she worked on starting her tan. She had always been genetically blessed when it came to tanning because of her complexion she could lay out for hours and never burn. When Bobby returned several minutes later she said, " Later we are going to have to get groceries for the fridge in the room."
"Yeah. That and we need to start looking at souvenirs too." He replied as he stretched out alongside her to dry off.
Two hours later both began to pack up the stuff they'd brought with them and headed back up to the room. Bobby began to videotape things as they walked, getting some good shots of the Mayan Temple waterslide, stingray lagoon, and predator lagoon, not to mention shots of the pool. Once they were back in their room, Bobby changed into a pair of shorts and a T-shirt, while Kim put on a pair of shorts and a spaghetti strapped top over her bathing suit and began to brush the tangles out of her hair. She put a camera into her purse along with some spare rolls of film and slipped into a pair of comfortable sandals and once Bobby was ready they headed out to do some shopping.
After eating dinner they stopped and bought groceries for the room and picked up some gifts for themselves as well as for their friends and family back home. Several hours later both returned loaded full of bags and began to unpack the bags they had brought back.
