For a holiday vacation, I would love to travel to the Bahamas and stay at the Atlantis Hotel.  My sister stayed there, and she came back telling me how much she had.  It is kind of expensive to stay there for an entire week.  Of course, keep in mind how much awesome activities you would be doing, however, it said on the website that a night there is roughly $200.

This is the Atlantis Price Website: Atlantis Nightly Price

However, another huge factor to take into consideration is the amount for the flight.  The flight would cost a lot too.  I would most likely catch the flight in my home state capital of Hartford.  This website gives some estimates on how much it would cost for the trip there and back: Flight Prices

There are so many activities that you can do while at the Bahamas.  First and foremost, I would get a stereotypical back massage.  I feel like whenever somebody thinks of the Bahamas, they think of massages.  Here's a cool video I found on massages in the Bahamas:

In this video, it demonstrates Thai massaging.  It is interesting because there are many different kinds of massages that can be done, and can focus on different muscle groups and certain kinds of stresses that are in your life. 

Furthermore, I would totally go swimming with dolphins.  I have always dreamed of swimming with them. They seem so playful, and it is stuff they do in movies, so I am assuming it would be fun.  I remember watching MaryKate and Ashley with my sister one time, and the episode was where they go to the Bahamas and go swimming with the dolphins.  This is a type of video I hope to film if I end up visiting the Bahamas:

Another activity that I feel is one of the most important things you can do while at the Bahamas is to take in the scenery of the beach, sand, sky colors, etc.  There are so many beautiful colors, and the whole point of visiting the island for me at least would be to get away from all the stresses that exist in college life.  Here are a couple of relaxing pictures taken of the Bahamas. I think they are so calming to the mind:

In conclusion, the Bahamas would be an amazing place to visit.  I wouldn't want to go by myself. Going with my family or friends would be the only possible way for me to enjoy all of the water slides, dolphins, and relaxing scenery.  I know someday I will visit the Bahamas.  In the meantime, I'll just keep dreaming.
