good evening. headed to the north shore to get a session in….
pulled up to laniakea today around 1pm. the waves were head high and super fun. not so crowded so we scored. it was nao’s first session on the north shore and she caught so many good waves. more than me. surfed for a couple of hours, ate some pumpkin pie, and headed back to town. the day wasn’t over….
we headed up to brandon’s pool. did some underwater training with nao. she held her breath for 24 seconds the first try. that’s normal and pretty average, but not good enough if you want to surf big waves. by her third try, she was holding her breath for over a minute. actually one minute 4 seconds. nao’s got a pretty strong mind. a few more times in the pool, she’ll be holding her breath for 2 minutes. the day wasn’t over…
this is my favorite chinese restaurant in the world. won’t say the name because it’s crowded enough. want to know how good it is? ask nao. check out the 2 kumu’s. so good….
this is how you eat fish. good night….
**finally got my cell phone fixed so i can downloaded these photos from the UH football game that will go in the history books…
so here i am sitting in my seat on the 50 yard line. the game just finished and was the biggest win ever for UH football. people started jumping over the wall and rushing the field. the cops were still surrounding the field but i seen kids, grandpa’s and pretty much everybody jumping over the wall. bobby and john headed down. i’m still yelling my head off because we won. felt a little left out so i said what the heck. jumped over and joined the party. this was the first, and probably last time fans will be on this field. i bet the cops and security are thinking of a way to keep everybody off after next weeks game. good luck with that….
i was making my way up to the middle. check out every body giving the #1 sign. and check out the stadium of 50,000 trying to come down to the field too….
this was the closest i got. see that WAC trophy on the right? i could have touched it… i will never ever forget that night….
and i got the proof i went…. this ticket is going in my scrap book…
Steamed Kumu and Pumpkin Pie….
Tow-Surfing in Waikiki…..
good morning again. got a second sleep in and i’m still feeling tired. been having too much fun recently. brandon’s boat is the bomb. perfect for fishing, diving, or just having fun. we started off by diving. right where we anchored the boat was this ledge with turtles all over the place. we were touching them, grabbing them, and even riding them. it was pretty cool. then once in a while, a big shark would come out and do his rounds. i told the girls to jump in to check out the shark but they were all screaming “no way”.. then kelia was brave enough to jump in and grab my hand. the shark didn’t even come out of the ledge but she just kept on screaming. i could hear her under water. it was so funny. my brother and shane were diving and picked up some fish and tako. then it was time for tow-surfing. the girls were on it…..
first it was alyssa. alyssa is classic. she was cracking me up all day….
then it was kelia. kelia got tow surfing down. she got up and just ripped….
then it was nao. it was nao’s first time so i was wondering if she could do it or not. i remember the first time i tried it. it took me a while to get up and going. she grabbed the rope, held on, and got up on her second try. then she was hitting the lip of the wake. she’s a fast learner…
then it was mason. the girls were having so much fun that mason wanted to try. so he grabbed kelia’s board and jumped in. he was actually ripping. i was about ready to tell the girls that their uncle was schooling them. then…..
then he hit a bump and ate shit. broke his finger and that was it. oh my gosh….
