2 weeks ago, we hopped on a plane and made our way to meet the boat in Guam! We got to spend a few days together, but then Typhoon VongFong got in our way and the boys were recalled to the boat; all flights to Tokyo were cancelled and we got stuck in Guam for an extra two days to wait out the storm (all the while, Tokyo was getting hit by Typhoon Phanfone), but we made it through, made it home, and it was a great trip!
At the Tokyo Narita airport!!
We made it!
Beautiful!
We got there a day before the guys, so we did a little exploring and enjoyed a few island-y drinks!
They arrived! He grew a pretty excellent Navy stache!
Casey, Allison, and I playing in the ocean! The boys were there too.
Happy Castillos! The water was super clear and blue! A perfect temperature too!

Someone had this awesome polaroid camera (I want one!) that took some fun pictures at a "Wetting Down" party we went to with a ton of people from the boat. (Wetting Down is a promotion party, with those getting promoted contributing a ton of money to provide a bar tab)
Wandering the beach at night, having a Guam beer!
mango mimosas for our breakfast!
We took the trolley out to a place entitled "The Beach Bar." It was super fun! We played cornhole, snorkeled and watched the sunset behind an incoming storm!

Matt (Casey's husband) and Alex on the trolley to dinner!
Snorkeling!
I didn't have the camera when we saw it, but Guam has these AMAZING starfish unlike I've ever seen! They're bright, bright blue and huge! We were snorkeling and we found one! It was really cool to see!
We ate some delicious pineapple carrot cake!
After the guys were recalled to the boat and we got cancelled...twice, we went over to Julie's hotel and had some cheering up beer!
YIKES.
After the storm passed, We spent our last night on the balcony reading and having a few beers.

All in all it was an amazing trip! Counting down the weeks until Alex comes home!
