Beach Hunting!

Last night, we went to Kmart to buy some groceries. As it turns out, Kmart is the place to be on a Sunday night. It was packed. There were little kids running around everywhere and everyone was taking there time walking through the aisles. The best part of that experience, however, was that there was a Little Caesar's inside. They had signs that said "Hot'n'Ready" but it wasn't as "ready" as it is at home. It was $10 (instead of $5 at home) and we had to wait about 15 minutes. It was worth it though.
This morning we woke up at 5 and couldn't fall back asleep. We went to McDonald's for breakfast and ate it on the beach. Then we decided to drive around, explore, and find more beaches. Here are some pictures. We took a video too, but we're having trouble uploading it.

Also while we were exploring, we found, what we call, "The Strip". Basically, it consists of restaurants and stores. Some of the restaurants we saw were: Hooters, Planet Hollywood, Burger King, Hard Rock, Friday's, Outback, Lonestar, McDonald's, and Taco Bell.

We went exploring and found a little cove with huge rocks.


















When you drive down the road, there are signs every few blocks that say "Public Beach Access". If you follow those signs, there is usually an area to park on the side of the road and then there's a path that leads to the beach. While we were walking from the car to one of the beaches, we saw a zoo!

To get to Flores Beach (one of the main beaches), you have to drive down the side of a cliff on a very curvy road. When you begin to head down, you can see the tourist/resort area of the island. This area is called Tumon Bay.


We're not really sure what this is supposed to be, but we saw it while we were walking to Flores Beach. I thought it was cute, so I took a picture.

This picture was actually taken last night when we went to Kmart. There were 3 of these signs in the parking lot. Apparently, parking on the roof is a very common thing here.

And this is our rental car. A blue, Nissan Versa.

  3. Sounds like they got it all Lynn. I don't know about the work Micah will be doing but think they are very lucky to be there.... esp. considering the alternatives.
