Around here, we’re already feeling summer vibes. On the other side of the globe, winter is closing in. In my opinion, vacationing on a tropical island never sounds wrong wherever you live. Are you ready?

PT #281

Use as many tropical tropes as possible to describe the stop of your cruise ship on a tropical island.

PT #282

 

Combine common tropes such as the hero journey, love triangle, lost memory, anti-hero, or enemies to lovers with tropical tropes without (challenge!) becoming too cliché.

 

 

Please include the prompt number either in your story/chapter description or title to help readers who would like to search for specific prompts. Also, please remember that stories less than one thousand words must be posted as part of a collection.

PT #181.5: Together as a family, you decided to travel to a tropical island with many mountains and decide to rent a car. However, every road feels like a roller coaster with more twists, turns, hills and dips than the designated driver has ever driven through. Will the family make it to the infamous seashore seafood restaurant near the beach? Will anyone remember the parking brake to prevent the car from rolling down the hill? Will anyone remember the bug spray when swarms of mosquitoes circle their prey at 6pm?

So that seashore seafood restaurant -- is that by chance named Sandy's Superb Seashore Seafood Shack?   LOL.  Name offered freely for any authors to use.

That sounds good to me! I'd build a whole trip around a place called "Sandy's Superb Seashore Seafood Shack" 🤣
