What is it about Guam that gets folks saying absolutely crazy things? When we were there way back when, it was right after typhoon Pamela which supposedly left only 250 survivors...actually there were NOT ANY fatalities and only a few minor injuries. Everybody we knew that was there during the storm had a "I'm one of the 250 survivors of typhoon Pamela" t-shirt...think they sold something like 5000 of them!
Are you stopping in Hawaii for a couple of days on your way back? We did, but it was hard to do much sight-seeing with 4 kids kindergarten age and under!

Terri, glad you're back on the Pebble to pack up for your move. I remember those days well. Cleaning Teams were outrageous, so we decided to clean ourselves when we left Germany. My Ex decided not to worry about unplugging the stove before he reached his bare hand inside...their 220 volts knocked him across the room. Hope your husband is a high rank so you'll can hire folks to do that part & just get on the big bird & fly home. You'll feel so free to be back in the USA. Luv & prayers to you & your family.

Not hiring to have anyone clean. Don't need to. We always clean ourself. I used to clean gov't quarters when we lived in GA. I made good money at it too! The inspectors would drive up, see me standing there and just sign the papers for the people to leave. The inspectors KNEW I cleaned very well and all units passed. Never had to go back in and wipe anything down.
This place, being solid concrete and ceramic floors, we can mainly just flood the place and squeegie it out. Makes it much easier, but we won't do that. It's not all that dirty. Was just mainly cat fur flying around and some dust. Will take us about a day to get the entire 3 floors done. Not a big deal.
No, we won't be flying thru Hawaii. We have a 3 hour layover in Tokyo, then off to Los Angeles to pick up the van. Hopefully it will be there and we won't have to overnight waiting for it.

Well, yes, sort of.
Once we get to LA, we have to wait for our "limo". It's actually a 15 passenger van, but they call it a limo. It will take us to get the van. Usually takes a few hours to get it, then pack it up, get the car top carrier on and off we will go. Bill usually sleeps on flights, so he will most likely do most of the driving to get us out of CA. But, before we leave, we have to stop and get cat litter and a phone card for the phone.
