Street Market

Street Market is pretty much the coolest thing Saipan offers. Every Thursday night (except for a couple weeks when the government shut it down in an attempt to manipulate citizens into approving a new casino) in Garapan, the tourist village of Saipan, Beach Road fills with vendors selling Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Chamorro, and Thai food. Almost every booth will sell you a dinner for $5, usually with 6 different items of food, or else you can hop around, grabbing 1 item from several different booths, for $1 each.
The food is very often very good.
But I'm not here to tell you about that.
One lovely night, Miss Blackwell, Mr. JJ, and myself took some students down to Street Market. We grabbed our food (Go with Chamorro, so GOOD!) and made our way into the outdoor pool area of one of the resorts. Fiesta, to be specific.
It wasn't as quiet of a location as we might have expected. On the other side of the pool, under a shelter, was a group of Japanese partyers. At first I thought it might have been a rehearsal dinner, but I soon realized that was not correct. First, the group was skewed towards males, and then the partying seemed just a trifle too enthusiastic for a rehearsal dinner.
This analyzation was proven correct when all of a sudden about 5 guys whipped off their shirts and shorts to reveal nothing but Speedos.
Not something I was exactly prepared for.
But then, I wasn't really prepared for it when they pulled off the Speedos too and proceeded to jump into the pool.
Nope, definitely wasn't prepared for that.
