Weekend in Guam!!

It was a very tough weekend.

Worked Friday morning until 3 pm, went home to get my suitcase and off to the airport.
Arrived in Guam at midnight, couldn't sleep that day so went to the beach early in the morning.

It was only girls trip so we had lots of fun. Good food in nice hotels, had fun at the beach and pools, sunset and BBQ with polinesian dancer. Because we were too tired at night, we didn't go out to party but I think that was good. There were only Japanese and American navy!! When we were inHilton Hotel's pool, all we saw were American armies. I guess they were on their way to the next destination, stopped over in Guam to have fun.
Hilton's sunday brunch buffet was fantastic! We had champaign from 11 in the morning, I was kinda drunk all day...

One thing I was upset was that it rained at least once a day. It is sunny and hot but it also rains especially in the afternoon. So sometimes we had to wait 1 or 2 hours until the rain stop.

On the way back, pick up at the hotel was 3:45 am, flight at 6:45 am. Arrived in Tokyo at 10 am, went back to my house at 11:30, and went to work at 1 pm... I was gonna take a day off on Monday but I urgently had an appointment that I had to go.

Plus, the next day after work, I flew to Kagawa prefecture, which is in the 4th largest island in Japan and famous for Udon noodle. Stayed there for one night and went back to Tokyo. I didn't wanna go to Kagawa, but this trip made me refreshing. It is very country side that you have to drive 10 min to the closest convenience store but this made me feel relaxed. I guess I needed to get out from the city.

Anyway, this week was incredibally busy, tiring.
Leaving to HK/Singapore on Sunday for business. Usually I am excited to go abroad but not this time... I need to rest, take holidays...

Hi there,

never been to Guam, but I hear it is a fun touristy spot. Would you recommend it over Bali, Krabi / Koh Phi Phi(Thailand) or Cebu (Philippines)?

I am very tempted to visit the Kagawa prefecture on my next trip.. it sounds really nice. Well, I made plans to tour the north of Honshu on my next trip.. renting a car and go! I want to be able to understand basic TohokuBen by the time I'm done :)

Any thoughts?
