We are living in a very nice house. It has two bedrooms, a very large kitchen, nice size dining area and living area.
Our new home...

Living room...
The floors are all brand new tile, our feet and ankles are still getting used to the impact. All the furniture is in very good shape. Overall we are very pleased with our accommodation's.
The nicest thing about our new house is its location. We are less than 100ft from the largest grocery store around, a fast food restaurant, the FSM bank, a video rental place, the Pohnpei Library and an office supply store. This is a huge benefit for newcomers, especially new comers without a car.
Local food is not sold at the larger grocery stores and is much cheaper. On Monday evening I decided to go buy a fish at one of the stands that sell local food. I bought a 7 pound tuna it cost a little more than $5. I took it home and started hacking away (later I found out that they will cut it up for you if you ask) and made some sushi (thanks Sachiko for the sushi lesson). Megan was a little leery about eating a lot of raw fish so we baked some in our oven.
It was pretty tasty...

Keep the updates coming! I'm so glad you made it safe and sound. Do you feel like you're just on vacation and not really living there? I think I would.
That sure is alot of tuna. Andrew is a good shopper. I'm curious about the currency. Are dollars used or seashells (HA HA) or what? Don't give up on Rocky. He's probably just getting to know you.
Glad you both made it safely. I've been following your adventures these past few months. God bless you.
