No pets. But the gated.fenced yard is great for the kids. We can lock the gates and they are free to run around and do whatever. The yard is what sold me on this hose. It really is perfect for the kids.

luvinmatt- That actually looks like he pic I saw in the mininex! Well congrats on the new home! I hope your shipment arrives soon enough. The fence is an awesome touch- do you have a pet?

We have only been in Guam 3 weeks but so far we really like it. The place is beautiful and the people are great. Housing really depends on when you get here. I suggest you apply for housing but also be looking out in town to see what is available. We looked at what housing was offering and were looking out in town in the same time and ended up picking a house in town.

We did did a house in Piti. We moved in on Friday, well as much moving in as you can do without an HHG shipment.

Andrea- I am glad he made it here safely!

Our flight was 22 hours. We started out in Nashville. We did not stop in Japan though. We stopped in Hawaii.

I mailed a bunch of Mail Jacob received here at the house and of course snacks and goodies and his Birth certificate (he wants to get a pass port) so he can go to other countries. Post man said papers and food are not insurable. So I could no insure it. I still have the receipt so hopefully it won't get lost. I did not list his birth certificate on the customs form.

Since my daughter has been there I've mailed a couple of boxes. Each took about 6 days to get there. The flat rate boxes from the post office cost the same to ship as they do to the states regardless of weight. Only catch I've found is that I can't use the automated post office machine after hours because they require a customs form, so I have to wait in line at my (very inefficient) post office.
