I went to Guam for vacation about 13 years ago. It was unexpected but very nice being there again.

Yoriko.....what beautiful GDs you have and a very handsome son. You were BIG news all over the world. I'm happy you are safe and thank you for sharing the pictures with us. Would love to see more. It is good that you found a traveling companion. I know it made the trip easier and you really had a near death experience to bond over.;)

Hello Yoriko,

Just come on (it's nearly 9.00pm) and read your post. I'm sorry I didn't see it yesterday. Welcome back and thanks for showing us some of the beauty of Japan (especially your grand-daughters and son). I hope you are settled back into your home and that things are returning to normal, whatever normal is!

I notice your camera is a video. Did you take much footage? Hope to see some more pictures etc.

Love and blessings Chris
