I smell a field trip! Guam actually does have a range of environments. It depends on the geography of the land. I know some places that seem like you're on Mars and other places that seem like the Amazon. By the way, so many years ago I took a university course on the geography of Guam so if you have any questions on that - I'm your guy. (Actually my wife got a better grade than I did.) I used to take the 4th graders on a geography field trip back in the day.
I see that everyone is following your zealous lead and writing lesson plans for all of their blog posts also. When will your thirst for over-achievement be quenched?!!
Hi Norman!
Have you seen the different regions of Guam with all the populated places using Google Earth? It's quite interesting to know what our island looks like from way up there. I saw that our island is fast developing and one can wonder if Guam is able to handle all these people and more. What will happen to our land?
