The Guam Course reports:
Hafa Adai from Guam! We toured the central east coast of the island today, visiting Latte Stone Park and Plaza de Espana in Agana, along with Two Lovers Point, Agana Bay and the lookout site at the Governor's office complex, overlooking where many of Guam's WWII battles were fought. We learned a lot about the Ancient Chamorro history and the interaction of the Spanish and Japanese cultural influences during each country's occupation of Guam. The weather is gorgeous, with only a few quick scattered showers, just enough to let us cool off from the hot, humid weather. Tomorrow we're going on a jungle river cruise.... More to come!!!!

We have heard from some other courses.

We finally found an internet place that was working. We spent today at the colliseum and forum and except for getting a little lost around town things seem to be going smoothly. Tarquinia yesterday was a little more of a challenge. The driver dropped us off at the Necropoli saying that the museum was across the street and a short walk down the block. Thirty minutes later we found the museum clear across town. Tomorrow we are going to visit the Vatican.

This morning 18 of us gathered at 6:00 am and hiked up Diamond Head to watch the sun rise (see picture). As always, a pretty spectacular way to ring in the new day.

Following sun rise, we boarded a bus and headed to the University of Hawaii - Manoa. At the university we will be learning about Hawaiian history and the realities faced by modern day Hawaiians as they work to reclaim their culture. It will be a great day!
