I know I said Wakana's biopsy results would be given to us a week from Monday. That's today. We went to the doctor's office only to find out that her appointment is on WEDNESDAY! Two more days to wait...

We stopped for coffee on the way home. There is a little coffee shop along Marine Corps Drive between Hagatna and Tamuning. It has a little covered deck with tables. You sit there next to the coconut palms and watch the light play on the water. Except today we were watching a line of thunder squalls rolling past. It was generally cloudy but to the south of us the sky was very dark. The scene had that stark quality it gets when the foreground is well lit and the background is dark. The surf was stark white and each boat's colors were picked out in detail though the boat was far off. The sea was steel gray and dark. Very dramatic.

There were two young women from Japan at one of the other tables. They were busily taking pictures of each other and watching the ocean. They were at the end of their trip and will be boarding a plane later today to fly home.

The coffee was good too.
