Amy's Favorite Places

In celebration of Marcy's long journey to Guam we have been adventuring around Guam. I am in people shock after living by myself for the past few months, having not just one, but two people in the house is a real treat. Tom was feeling sick early in the week, but he has just about kicked it and is feeling much better.

Lucky for us, Marcy arrived on Monday night and we had Tuesday off from work for Veteran's Day. We took her on a drive around the rather lovely southern side of the island. Here are a couple of pics for Fort Soledad.



Yesterday we went to my absolute favorite place on the island, Talofofo Caves. I have been there a few times and I LOVE it. I found a "new" cave yesterday (new to me). That one involved crawling on our bellies to get through the small opening at the beginning. The reward was a beautiful view on the cliff side.





Unfortunately, we had to go back out the way we got through, because even though the cave did come out to daylight on the cliffside, there was nowhere to go from there. You can see how thrilled Marcy was with this...



Actually, Marcy liked the caves too.





Today we had a picnic at Ritidian Point, which is my favorite beach on the island. After the beach we stopped in Tumon for gellato and a trip to the Underwater World aquarium.

Tomorrow we are flying to Rota for two nights so Marcy can see more of the Marianas. Rota is a pretty little island with nothing to do but relax.

There are more pictures from the visit on Flickr.

Here is one more of Tom from our kayaking trip a couple weekends ago...
And one of the two of us...
