Daydreaming Of Micronesia
As the weather begins to cool down here, I’m thinking about my favorite lagoon. It’s in the tiny, Micronesian island nation of Chuuk (formerly known as Truk). I’m thinking about sitting on the sandy beach at the Truk Blue Lagoon Resort on the island of Moen (which is also known locally as Weno), and looking out across the blue, placid water of one of the world’s largest lagoons. It is sweltering hot, so cold beer is practically a survival necessity.
