Diving and Waterfalls

First, my apologies for not keeping up more with the blog this past week. Tom and I spent every evening last week at dive classes from 6pm until around 9:30 or so. It kept us busy, but we are now officially certified open water divers. We had our four open water dives in class on Friday and Sunday. It was amazing! I did not take my camera because we were learning skills, but we are diving next Sunday, and I promise to take pictures.

In other exciting news, we got a cat. His name is Sylvester. He is about a year and a half old, and he is very sweet. He is also very vocal, but hopefully he will stop that once he gets accustomed to his new home. Here is a picture of Tom and Sylvester. As you can see, he is very cuddly in the morning, before we are ready to get up.


In addition to the diving, we also went on a short hike to Tarzan Falls. The trailhead is just up the road from our house. It was a beautiful waterfall, but the trail was very muddy and somewhat steep.



I have more photos of the hike, but this is running really slow right now, so I am going to post these, and come back to it tomorrow.

Congratulations on your dive certification! That'll make your time in Guam that much more fun... and when the super typhoons (that's plural) hit, you can put on your mask and snorkel and swim through all the water! hehe

Congratulations to you on your new family member... Looks like Tom has already grown accustomed to him.
