... the first.. The visibilty was good and the terrain was pretty cool. However, I didn't run into anything crazy on this one. I told everyone I was coming home tan and jacked so I laid out on the boat for about an hour in between dives to get that started. And Ive got a loonnng way to go haha
Sunday's boat dives were out to a rare site.. Cocos Island. The currents out there are usually pretty rough so boats almost never make it out there. Its ...

... tip reef sharks.  Noone really had a chance to take a picture because it was so quick but the minute it realized we were around it was out of there. The reef sharks are much more afraid of us than we are of them...(which is not much) and there are almost never shark attacks unless people are being stupid here. For example the only attack in the last ten years was a spearfisher who speared a shark and tried to pull the spear out before the shark was dead. And you can ...

... the captain would be his daughter's husband. When the girl discovered this, she was so disillusioned that she ran from the house and wandered along the shore where the sea soothed her with its silence and peace. While walking along the shore, she met a young, gentle, strongly-built and handsome Chamorro man from a very modest Chamorro family. He was lost in his own solitary thoughts, his gentle eyes seemed to be studying the lonely stars and seeking some ...

... both heard about that is located on the little navy base west of Andersen. The bike ride was about 9-10 miles both ways and added a nice little workout to the trip! The base was at the bottom of a pretty decent hill so after we had climbed up this massive thing, it felt pretty nice just cruising down it and gaining speed.... until I remembered that the old rusty bike that I had picked up had brakes that worked about as well as my old eclipse... and that blew up on me on 81 last ...

... pöntöissä piilee kaikille miehille melkoinen vaara, mutta kun pumppaustehokin on aivan surkea! Kun painaa nappia, niin vesi alkaa pikkuhiljalleen virtaamaan ja tosta hommasta ei tule yhtään mitään, jumankeuta! Kyllä minä haluan, että kun painan nappia, niin kamat lähtee kuin tykin suusta, whuuuuushh! Lentokoneessa on aina hyvät imutehot ja sellaisen systeemin haluan himaan ehdottomasti! :-) Mutta tämän Amerikkalaisen pöntön vaarat tietäen, niin ihan hyvä ettei n ...

Northwest Airlinesin Ikivanha 757-200 kone ja mieletöntä turbulenssia keskellä yötä, niin ei paljon enää naurattanut! Lennolla oli kyllä ruokatarjoilu, mutta se meni totaalisen pipariksi ja jäi aivan viime tinkaan, koska mitään asiaa ei ollut tarjoilukärryjen kanssa käytävälle tälläisen rytinän ...

... the back-story about why Guam is "Where America starts its day". Although inhabited by the Chamorro people since around 1500 B.C., Guam became a Spanish colony after Magellan landed in 1521, and was later given to the USA as part of the settlement of the Spanish-American War in 1898. In 1941, it was taken over by the Japanese and not recovered by American troops until 1944 after a lot of brutal fighting. Ironically enough, is still under ...

... adjacent to the Governors residence. Spanish, American, and Japanses forces all made use of this fortification dating back to the early 1800's. Spanish documents mention a gun salute being fired from the fort. Other records show that the citadel later functioned as a signal station for the American Administration in the 1930's.

... are over 21, and the rest find alcohol somewhere else, like college kids). "Hmm," I thought, "I missed Thanksgiving, so what's the next best thing to a Thanksgiving feast?" A Subway turkey sandwich! It was delicious, even as pieces of shredded lettuce fell into my lap as I watched some silly movie on the TV of the bus that was taking me into town. To clarify, I don't really think it's possible to explain Guam's size. There are no real towns or cities, and though things are ...
