Beach Day

These are pictures of Haputo Beach. You have to go onto Navy property to get to it and there is a 1/4-1/2 mile hike from the road down the cliff to the beach. We packed up Samuel and went to the beach for about 1 hour (quite an accomplishment for us these days). We haven't done much swimming in the ocean (actually, none) because everyone has us afraid of it! Apparently there are really strong rip currents and we hear horror stories of how people get dragged out for miles and drown. I think the rip currents are out past the reef, though, and we didn't even go close to the reef.



























Here is Samuel at 3-1/2 months.

The Guam Outdoors

Here are a few pictures of the scenery here on Guam. In general, we have been bad at taking pictures of anything but Samuel, so this is all we have now. We live in the middle of the island, but it is so small that we can see the ocean on both sides from our home. The sunset picture is outside our back door.


Here is Samuel & Rudi at one of the beaches.
We cannot believe how big he is getting. He loves "standing."
