I am traveling there in February, leaving from KCMO and stoping in Houston TX and Hawaii before arriving at Guam.
I am leaving (KCMO) at 6AM (CT) and arriving in Guam at 6:20PM the n-e-x-t day Guam time, which is 3:20AM back in the states. I will actually be travelling for almost 24 hours. but going thru those time changes are probably going to make it feel like more..
Can you tell me about your trip? How bad was your jet lag?
How long did you stay? How expensive was the food? How safe did you feel?

Good for you that you will have the chance to go there..I have lived there for 6 months but didn't get a chance to go back again.I like it there and the people are nice..foods are great and the beaches around the island...there are many international restaurants around so there would be no problem if you travel a lot and prices are not that expensive compare to other countries. As many tourists visit Guam more, prices goes higher.
Get lots of rest before your trip, you will surely have a jet lag and time adjustments for days..
I heard about the base because it was near the place I stayed. if you would like to hear more you can visit Yahoo chat..military.. chances you can find people who are stationed there.
The most longest hours I traveled so far was 21 hours, it was not that bad until I got the nasty bug that made me sick all the way on my trip, if you feel good and no worries of sickness, jet lag won't be much problem. I managed to get back home but had rested for 3 days to recover. The important part of these long hours of traveling..make sure you have your medicine kit and Gravol if you travel... I've learned my lesson.
Nausea is not an illness itself; it is rather a possible case of several conditions, many of which are not related to the stomach at all. In fact, more often than not nausea indicates a condition somewhere else in the body rather than in the stomach itself. An example of this is travel sickness, which is due to confusion between perceived movement and actual movement. Our sense of equilibrium lies in the ear and works together with eyesight. When these two don't "agree" to what extent the body is actually moving the symptom is presented as nausea even though the stomach itself has nothing to do with the situation
*Gravol® is a trade name for the nonprescription drug dimenhydrinate. Gravol and similar medications are used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting.

I was stationed there for two years and loved every minute of it. The food is kind of expensive around the tourism section but i did feel safe the whole time i was there. The jet lag you'll get over in a few days. Lots of history there and the locals and tourists are very courteous. The food is awesome. If you have any questions, let me know.
