Lenina wonders if she should go on the vacation with Bernard, but she would rather go to Mexico. Plus they would be spending three days in the Salvage Reservation, and barely anyone gets to visit the Salvage Reservation. On their date Bernard just wants to go on a walk, be alone, and not take soma, but she is complete opposite. When they are on their way home Bernard is hovering over the water enjoying the calmness but Lenina just wants to go home. Bernard tries explaining that they are free and alone, but she doesn’t really care. That night they go to Bernard’s place and sleep together, but the next Bernard wishes he wouldn’t have because he wants to delay the impulses instead of going to what is normal.
BRAVE NEW WORLD CHAPTER 6 PART 2
Bernard is sent the Director’s office thinking he will get in trouble for going asking for a permit to go to the Salvage Reservation. Surprisingly the Director signs of on the permit for Bernard. Then the Director goes off about the past and how he went to the Salvage Reservation with a young Bata girl and then she got lost in England. Bernard just let him talk because usually people don’t go off about their past. After, the Director’s rant he tells Bernard that the next time he is caught not acting like an infant he will send him to Iceland, but he doesn’t really take it as a threat. It doesn’t take the effect that it should though and he goes out of the room and says, “He can fight giants.”
BRAVE NEW WORLD CHAPTER 6 PART 3
Bernard and Lenina fly to Mexico, and when they get there they have this really nice hotel. Bernard has to warn Lenina that the she needs to prepare herself because the Reservation won't be like this. When they get to the Reservation Bernard remembers that he left the Eau de Cologne tap running, so he tries to hurry the Reservation Warden up. He finally has time to call Helmholtz to have him turn it off, and Helmholtz replies that the Director is already looking for someone to take his place.

Bernard then sleeps through the whole air tour, and when they land they are dropped of at the rest house.
