Saturday, our first full day in Guam.

We woke up really early. Had a breakfast buffet at the hotel. And we went swimming right after. We weren't too active, just mostly lazing by the pool really. So we didn't get any cramps from eating and swimming, ha ha ha. The boys made a friend right away of course. They're friendly boys both of them, so no wonder. Her name was Keeley (sp?), she was American and she and the boys played for a good long while. Off and on for most of the day. Here is Branden showing her he knows how to hold his breath underwater. Now, mind you, I don't find this all too fascinating too much. But apparently this sorta info, kids find it quite fascinating to each other, ha ha ha. She watched in amazement, lol. And I sat smiling and thinking. How cute and funny kids are in general. All kids. : ) The ol' "look what I can do" ha ha ha!



And here is where he submerged his face and showed her! LOL! My nerdy kids! The girls mom was really nice as well.



Noboru and I both took turns hanging near the kids to make sure Noah didn't take a tumble in the water. After a while, we 4 switched to the big pool and they said goodbye to Keeley for a bit.


Noah kept coming to my chair and checking in with me. Not sure why he did this but it was cute he did it.


Mr. Noah-chan! : )


Going down the slide with Noah.

And Branden quickly followed, ha ha ha. And then I shut off my camera and I followed them down too! I think, I went down about 15 times on Friday, 30 times on Saturday and gosh only knows how many times total, since we went swimming on Monday as well. This is a very mellow slide.


The ocean was very low in the background, we actually could see the fish swimming from the swimming pool. Noboru said he wanted to catch them, ha ha ha. I swam this pool back and forth underwater a few laps and then I hit the hot tub for a while.


We had a long day. Here we were getting ready to leave!



And down the stairs.


And around the pool and we were outta there! : )





We started swimming as soon as it opened. So we swam from like 8:00 am or whenever it opened, until 2:30 pm. Felt hungry and tired from swimming. We got quick showers and headed to the Micronesia Mall. And had lunch in the food court. We had Taco Bell. And then I went and got my eyebrows waxed and my hair cut real quick. This place accepts walk-ins and I've gotten 2 eyebrow waxes from them in the past when we've come to Guam. They gave me one heck of a nice eyebrow wax, and you wouldn't believe my haircut. It's so different. Remember how I had long choppy layers before? Well, not anymore. I now got a bob. Yup all one length mostly and just above my shoulders. With a few long layers around chin level. Remember how Rachel in Friends got her hair cut short towards the end of Friends? Like that basically. Hard to explain I know but it looks really different now. I like it a lot. Whatever compelled me to make such a big change? I don't know. I'm picky with my hair and always changing it every 5 month's or so. So this is my latest change. So Noboru took the boys to play and ride the kiddie rides at the mall, while I got my cut and wax. Then we went back to the hotel to get ready for dinner. We had plans to meet up with my dad for dinner that night at Tony Roma's.
