To Arcadia



In order to obtain an E-2 visa for teaching I had to travel to US soil and since my employers decided that the mainland was too far away Guam was the best option. It was a beautiful island and a welcome respite from the bitter cold of winter. I think it was 80 degrees when I landed. On Monday I spent about 4 hours on the beach, enjoying the clear water and a nearby cliff. I even got a sunburn ... in December. Oh the irony of life...







After the beach, I ate at Wendy's, went shopping, and found brown boots that fit! It was pretty exciting :) For dinner I went to an upscale seafood restaurant and had real cheese, pinot noir, and tuna. The whole trip was an idyllic vacation from the challenges of teaching. I would definitely love to go back someday.

How beautiful (and warm). Although teaching is tough, this is one hot perk.
