Front Entrance of the Hotel
When all tour participants have loaded the tram, Poppy clears her throat to corral their attention, her voice even brighter and more cheerful when being broadcast through the vehicle's surround sound speakers.
"Good afternoon, everyone! How are we doing today? Oh, you all look like a great bunch of people! Just as a reminder, I'm Poppy Gladwin — yes, the Poppy Gladwin — and I'm the Head Vacation Guide here at the Grand Paradise Hotel. That means if you have any questions about the hotel, the island, or any of the excursions we offer, I'll be more than happy to answer them!
"I want to once again welcome you to our beautiful island resort! We're so happy to have you staying with us during our Festival of Life! It's our busiest time of year, and we do appreciate everyone's cooperation as we get our grand re-opening underway, but let me tell you. It is so worth it to be spending this time with you all, and it means very much to us that you have given us this opportunity to help you celebrate this festival and our very special tribute this year.
"But what about today, right? Welllll! Today, I'm going to take you on a tour of Hamnet Island that explores beyond the call for treasure and adventure, and exposes the true heart of this place we call home. As we travel to our first destination, I invite you to open your senses to everything the island has to offer — from the soft, tropical breeze to the hint of coconut and warm honeysuckle in the air, Hamnet Island is a true delight to experience!"
As the tram pulls away from the hotel, Poppy points out the tennis courts and the Paradise Dunes golf course. She also invites the guests to join her in a rousing rendition of Rupert Holmes' "Escape".
