OR
be stuck in the mountains with enough water and mountain berries (or whatever grows in the mountains that you can eat) till you were rescued?
remember, if you choose the island it's beautiful and all but very hot and if it storms there is no shelter and if you try to swim for it there are sharks but if you choose the mountains then it can get very cold and there are mountain lions and other dangerous animals around too.
in either case you'd be rescued at some point and would have enough water to drink till the rescue.
i don't know why i'm asking this, probably because the movie "The Beach" with Leo DiCaprio is on...i remember watching this movie when it came out in the theatres and i just loved the scenery.
i would choose the island for sure because i'm very into the whole tropical island thing but i do like the mountains also.
what would you pick?

gr33n3y3z replied: mountains all the way smile.gif

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I would choose the island. happy.gif

My3LilMonkeys replied: The island - I can lay around naked if I get too hot, but I can't stand the cold. laugh.gif

Calimama replied: The island.

1. I cant STAND the cold.
2. I love tropical fruits
3. It's easier to cool myself down then warm myself up.
4. I wouldnt feel shut in because I would have the ocean views.
5. I could build shelter out of trees, etc.. well my husband can.. they teach them all those surival skils in the marines right? unsure.gif

Anyway it's island all the way!!! thumb.gif sun.gif

mckayleesmom replied: I would choose the moutains.....Last month I would have chose the Island...but I watched one of those Survivor man type shows and they put him in a tropical island once and there are some nasty bugs and diseases you could catch. There were also red ants he got bit up by really bad and Im allergic.

MomToJade&Jordan replied: I lived on an island with mountains for 4 years does that count? emlaugh.gif The beach for me.

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: I'd choose the mountains. No question. I love water, but being surrounded by it and being hot would not be my first choice. I HATE being hot. My philosophy is I can always put on more clothes. There's a limit to how much you can remove. And this even applies to a deserted island. There are certain places I do NOT want sunburned.

HuskerMom replied: I'd pick the mountains. I love the mountains they're so cool. I wouldn't like the island, I can't swim so that would be no fun anyways smile.gif

luvmykids replied:
I love that show!

But in spite of it, I'd take the island. I already live in the mountains with the snow and mountain lions tongue.gif

CantWait replied: Island, then I'd be able to sweat some fat off rolling_smile.gif rolling_smile.gif rolling_smile.gif

Oh and I like tropical fruit. I've never been anywhere tropical either.

PrairieMom replied: Island. I have personal experience with both Mountain life and beach life, and while the mountains are beautiful, and I love going there, the beach just stirs different feelings in me. GIve me the beach any day!

cameragirl21 replied:
come visit South Florida and you'll no longer be deprived...i can take you to Key West and we're about a half hour flight to the Bahamas.... happy.gif

grapfruit replied: Even w/the bugs and stuff, I'd still say Island all the way!!! I love the sun and stuff, and I don't know, I think it'd be a little easier... More things to catch and eat if your creative enough. smile.gif

BTW; I've seen that movie too and I really liked it! I also liked the Tom Hanks movie where I'm having a brain fart and can't think of the name of it but he has the volleyball and is (duh) stuck on an island.... Oh crap, I'm such a retard...

mummy2girls replied: I would say beach. I can handle heat more than wild animals and cold!. and the sharks can only get me if i go in the water and i wont expecially if i have enough water else where and yummy fruit!

grapfruit replied: Cast Away! It just came to me!

TheOaf66 replied: I would take the island, I dream of one day owning my own island but I hope I would get rescued in a resonable amount of time. I wouldn't want to be by myself that long.

C&K*s Mommie replied: an island. Cannot handle being cold for very long, and mainly because of coconuts being the "tree of life" and can help in many ways.

The Man vs Wild show on Discovery showed the survivalist "Bear" (not sure of his last name) on a deserted island and he showed some basic things to do in order to stay alive.

3xsthefun replied: The Mountains. I can't stand to get very hot.

redchief replied: Of course if I take the large island of Hawaii, I have the paradise and I can ski... That's what I want! rolling_smile.gif

JadensMama05 replied: Oh deserted island for sure!! Oh I'd love that. How beautiful. wub.gif

I could not make it alone in the mountains with the cold. And I would be scared to death of being attacked by animals. Well that sentence isn't a very good example of why Id choose the island, there's animals there too...

Plus I'd love to go somewhere warm and tropical too! smile.gif
