After several weeks off, mostly due to rainy weather, we returned to Boonie Stomping. We explored the southeastern coast and ended in the village of Inarajan. It was a beautiful day ~ sunny, clear and, most importantly while hiking, not too hot. The drive to the area is spectacular. Gorgeous views of the ocean and the southern part of the island is much less developed. Our hiking guide got permission for us to park at someone’s house which sat right on the beach ~ so lovely. As always, we were welcomed by the local hospitality.
The entire five mile hike to Bear Rock, at Agfayan Bay, was along the coastline in water up to my knees. Talk about a good workout for my legs. Can you make out the “bear” in the photo below?
There were a few waves which made me a little leery and concerned for my eight years old but we were able to time it so we made it through without getting pushed around too much by the water. Being from Hawaii, I have a healthy respect for waves and never turn my back on the ocean. Sometimes there are rouge waves lurking…
On our way back home, we stopped at a fun seaside restaurant called Jeff’s Pirates Cove for a late lunch. It’s a tourist stop but you can’t beat the atmosphere, beach-side location, good food and fast service.

No, you shouldn’t be worried. When I was seven and lived on Guam, I got stung by two of those buggers, one under my eye, and one on my elbow. My eye swelled up and i couldn’t see out of it for a week! And it did hurt really bad. But she should be fine, if she’s not deathly allergic.

The Boonie Bee sing can be VERY painful so maybe she’s just recuperating for now. The sting can cause swelling even in people who aren’t allergic to them 😦
Hope you hear from her soon!!!!

A friend of mine just moved to Guam and got stung by a “Boonie Bee”. I haven’t heard from her since. That was about 4 days ago. Should I be worried? What d’you think?
