Japanese Caves

The six caves in this cliff are part of an extensive islandwide cave system used by the Japanese. The caves are an example of the tunneling created by the Japanese throughout the Pacific Islands in the 1940s. They were built by Chamorro, Okinawan, and Korean forced labor using primitive tools working under extreme conditions. The caves were probably used for storage and air raid shelters.

Octopus

While we were spearfishing, mom found an octopus and we shot, cooked, and tried it. Apparently we aren't the greatest octopus chefs. It tasted great but felt like chewing a bouncy ball.
