Our Home

Andrew and I moved into our house on Thursday. It was nicer than I could describe to you to move out of the hotel - finally - exactly two weeks after we arrived. The first thing I did was take every last thing out of my suitcase. I am so done with suitcases!

Andrew called to check on our Household Goods shipment (all of our stuff that we didn't pack in suitcases) and learned that some of it was in California. I think that was supposed to be reassuring. However, I would like to know where the rest of our stuff is, and how long it will take to get to Guam from California, if it took an entire month to get to California from Texas. I hope it arrives before it's time for us to move again!

We went ahead and bought one pan, two bowls, and two sets of silverware, so we're getting by with that for now. With this being our first real move for the military, I really didn't know how to prepare. If I had known better, I would have packed so much more appropriately! Next time...

Instead of taking photos, I made a video tour of the house. I'm not terribly happy with it, but it's below for anyone interested.



We have been getting to know the neighborhood, and the whole island better and I'll have plenty of pictures to share here very soon. On Sunday, we went to the annual Mango Festival. In the next week or two, I think I am going to get my PADI certification so I can go scuba diving with Andrew. Fun!
