This morning we took it easy and talked via Skype with Allan and Joyce and all of their children.\u00a0 Though it was Saturday morning here, Allan just arrived home from work on Friday evening during the call.\u00a0 I did not recognize one of the girls I was seeing via their camera.\u00a0 Audrey finally introduced us to her friend Evie who was over for the day.<\/p>\n

The most popular food vendor items in the hot weather were the fruit (especially mango) smoothies.<\/p><\/div>\n

At 11am, the Gregsons, Joanna and Jenna Hodgins stopped by our apartment and took us to the Agat Mango Festival.\u00a0 Its only 1\/2 mile south of our apartment, but that’s too far to walk in the heat.\u00a0 [Paul said temperature at their house was 107F today!] \u00a0 We stayed at the festival for about 2 hours.\u00a0 Virginia and I shared a mango coconut smoothie — large for $5..\u00a0 We could easily have seen everything there in an hour or less, but visited a lot with various people including two pastors from the Marianas Baptist Church which is about two blocks from our apartment,<\/p>\n

This afternoon we both took naps.<\/p>\n

This evening we stopped by the Gregowskes to retrieve a couple of items we left at their house. We also picked up an easy chair and small table to use in the spare bedroom, where the second air conditioning unit is located. Only the bedrooms have air conditioning, so we move to the bedrooms when we can no longer tolerate the heat in the rest of the house, which is quite often!<\/p>\n
