I had spent a lovely three weeks in the US, two of which I spent in sunny CA. On the day I returned to Japan, it snowed. With three weeks of vacation left (yes folks, you're not mistaken, 6 weeks of vacation!!) my boyfriend and I decided to go find some sun. Thus, we ended up in Guam. It was exactly what I had hoped for. Palm trees, beaches, sun... lovely. We stayed at a cute hotel (compared to the monstrosities lining the beach) called the Santa Fe.
We met up with a former co-worker while here. It was great to hang out with someone living in Guam. It's wonderful to get away from the tourist traps and see what's going on with the locals. They took us to "Gun Beach" for a little beach party, The Mermaid bar for some live music and also to a joint with killer milkshakes. Ah, the good stuff.
I do have to admit, we did check out some of the touristy "thangs" such as dolphin watching and going 40 meters down in a submarine. Hell, when opportunity knocks... All i all, we had a wonderful time. The trip truly reinforced the fact that I need to head to a warmer climate in my next move.
A lovely sunset from outside of the "Santa Fe."
A view of "Two Lover's Point."
