Spring Break w/ the Gam Clan

Wednesday, April 28, 2010


Spring Break was about a month ago... So, in blogging tradition, I decided to FINALLY post, & update the world on the Gamett's Spring Break. Jeff & I were grateful for the week off school, & even more excited that Mom, Pops & David were headed to Guam for a visit. We were lucky be housesitting for some good friends of ours, so we had a little extra space for everyone... Thanks Monson's!

Here are some of the highlights:

1. Deep Sea Fishing - My yoga instructor does small fishing charters, and the boys are avid fishers, so they were stoked to head out for a morning, leave the girls behind and reel in some big ones... They ALL caught something... a few Wahoos, and a couple of Mahi-Mahi's... We're STILL eating fish!


2. Driving Range - David wanted to head to the driving range for an afternoon - I was less then thrilled, (I'm not much of a Golf Pro) - but it turned out to be an awesome afternoon activity... Nathan, Jeff & I have even gone back a few times since....


3. Tour de Guam - Everyone has to take the GRAND tour of our island... so, Mom, Dad & I headed out in the comfort of an air conditioned vehicle, & the boys took to the scooters... We spent the entire day driving down South, taking in the sites, food & even got a taste of the local culture... David & Nathan were set on getting a Sinahi (a traditional Chamoro necklace carved in the shape of a crescent moon out of giant clam shells or Carabou horns)... I gave our good friend David a call, he met us & we headed over to a friend of his, a carver who does it
as a hobby... He was incredibly generous... he was a true example of Chamorro hospitality...


4. Ritidian - the most beautiful beach on Guam - white sand, and nothing for miles - you feel like you're on the edge of the world...


5. The Fam - spending time w/ the Fam was AWESOME. We had some stellar family pictures taken on one of the beaches... Love the Fam. Love Guam. It was nice to have both @ the same time.
