Well we thought we would share the awful time we are having in Guam so far.............
YUCK!! This is the miserable view we have from our kitchen window. Can you imagine having to look at that EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS?!?!?!?!?!HA HA HA HA!! Just kidding obviously -- not about the view, this is actually our view from the kitchen but about the horrible time we are having.
So far, everything is going great. Of course if you would have talked to the kitties, the first 4 days we were here, I'm sure they would have disagreed........
Luckily, they only had to spend 4 days in "jail" before we could bust them out! Upon our first visit to the housing office on July 22nd, they said we would have to wait until Aug 4th to get into a house, but we were given keys to see if we would want this house which would be available on July 25th............
.......sure, what the heck. Some may think it's not much to look at but the house is basically a concrete bunker with typhoon shutters on all the windows. From what we're told, the house can withstand 195mph winds. I'm hoping we won't have to test that statement but we have found that if it's pouring down rain, you wouldn't know it unless you looked out the windows or went outside........that's good enough for me!
We didn't exactly have too many complaints about the hotel we "had" to stay in for 4 days........
but there's really no place like home.
By the way, does anyone have any advice on how to open a coconut? For the first time in my life, my "to do list" includes buying a machete. How many of you can say the same?I can also say for the first time, that I'm tired of SPENDING MONEY!!!! It's really amazing how many things you need to buy when you're waiting 6-8 weeks for your belongings to arrive on "a slow boat to China". However, we have been able to find the time to check out Tarague Beach which is the private beach here on Andersen AFB.
The drive to the beach is..................scenic.............
..........but well worth it................
You may be wondering if we miss San Antonio........................
..........where the hell is San Antonio?Well off we go to Bamboo Willies on the beach for a few drinks. You don't even want to know what the drive down here is like......in the DARK -- $%*&%#@!!!!
We hope everyone is well & don't worry about us.........we'll be FINE!! As my hubby would say.........."Can you believe I'm getting paid to live here?!?!?!?!?!?!"
Rock & Jen
