Food, Fun, and Sand at Nikko Hotel

September came and we have a brunch at Nikko Hotel in Tumon, Guam.

It was kinda cloudy and seems the rain would drop but we had fun both inside and outside with my niece and nephew. 

Enjoy the photos!

Hanging Out in CoffeeBeanery in Micronesia mall

If I don't feel like going home yet or would just like to sip coffee while browsing the worldwide web, I go to Coffee Beanery at Micronesia mall because it is the nearest one to where I live.

The baristas here are wondering because I always order coffee base drinks and also hot drinks. They wonder how do I manage to get to sleep after drinking coffee at evening. Well coffee is my addiction and yup I am a late sleeper.

Well enjoy some of the shots I got in CoffeeBeanery.

Fire Tree at Lower Tumon

Have been planning to photograph the fire trees in Lower Tumon and the ones that are in bloom are in The Reef Hotel and Hyatt. 

Fire Tree in Reef Hotel

The one in Hyatt which I took pictures after eating breakfast at Burker King right across Tumon Sands.

The images I took in Hyatt is a bit blurry. I guess the bright sun cause it or I am not just good yet at adjusting the settings for landscape settings.

In between shooting the fire trees I got some other pictures enjoy!

I am still shy in taking pictures of passing people. Probably that would be my next project. It would be nice if I can catch the emotion of those walking or jogging in Lower Tumon, Guam.

I decided to get my usual dose of Java at Coffee Beanery in Micronesia Mall instead of my usual Sunday coffee at Infusion.

While coming in I saw a co-worker and also passed by ABC store to check the price of my possible pasalubong but its kinda pricey will check some other possible pasalubong which is more lighter on the luggage and of course the pocket.

While walking can't help but point and shoot some pictures but I was hesitant on some because 1) its a public place and 2) I might be charge with taking pictures without permit.

So check out some below hope you like it:

This two metal sculptures from scrap metal usually from engine parts to utensils is so detailed and actually life size if you don't really check out out you might mistake it that its real. 

After getting my Sunday grocery was able to take some photos in the parking lot just outside Payless Supermarket. There is one section in Payless Supermarket that I wanted to photograph that is the vegetable section. I like how the tomatoes and all veggies are arranged. Next time I will take a photo and I hope the security wont stop me though.

Infusion Coffee & Tea located across Nissan in Upper Tumon is my weekly hangout place one because of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee in a French press(I think they are the only one offering coffee in French press here in Guam) and second is because of the ambiance.

If you have been in their coffee shop you will find a unique interior with the photos and some unique wall designs. I was able to get some pictures on a not so busy day, was hoping to get more pictures but I don't want to disturb or intrude to some of their clients privacy in their coffee or chat time.

Below are some images I took hope you like them:

If I get a chance will try to take more photos of the interior. But for now lets enjoy my Jamaican Blue Mountain shall we.

Playing tourist in Lower Tumon Guam with my Canon T3i

It's been a long time since I posted some pictures about Guam. Well now that I have my handy dandy Canon T3i(I dont know why they nickname it "Rebel") I have revisited the famous Lower Tumon today making the stroll at around 10:00 am and luckily is not yet a so busy time. Usually tourist like Japanese, Koreans, some Filipinos, some howlies, and a very few Russians stroll here to shop.

First stop is Burger King in Lower Tumon

View from the top at The Westin

We just had a Sunday lunch buffet  at Taste in The Westin Hotel here in Guam. 

We were about to leave the hotel when my nephew asked if we can see the view of the pool and these is what we have seen(sorry for the blurry pictures I was only able to grab my Nokia C3-00 to shoot a few images)

He made a funny comment, we were in the Westin but what we can see is a beautiful view of Nikko Hotel.

I was not able to get a picture of the restaurant were we had our lunch. The restaurant is called Taste here is a picture from the web.
