Island Tour

Anne and Steve, two missionaries that work for PIU, took us on a tour of the whole island last weekend. From our homes in Northern Guam, we headed south along the west coast to the southern tip and then back up the east coast. We stopped at amazing sights along the way, including caves, WWII memorials, and the first protestant church on Guam. We stood at the edge of the Marianas Trench, rode a carabao, and even saw the tallest mountain in the world (depending on how you measure it)! Mount Lam Lam on Guam is the tallest, because its base starts at the bottom of the Marianas Trench, seven miles deep, and reaches aprox. 1000 feet above sea level. We had a great time and learned many interesting facts that help us understand more of Guam's history and culture.
