My brother gave me a deep water fish that lives 1000 feet underwater.  This is probably the most expensive fish in Hawaii.  You will only find them at fine dining restaurants and it will cost you a fortune just for a small piece.  This is only the 2nd time in my life someone gave one to me.  I steamed it smiled after each bite.  This fish is called an “Onaga.”  Now I wish I could free dive a thousand feet because I want to eat another one…

Always beautiful…

Good morning 4:30am.
North shore 4-6′.
Ala Moana waist high.
Diamond Head chest high.
Trade winds at 25mph.
Sun, showers, and rainbows.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Going to start to clear out my desktop of all these photos that have been in the corner.  This one was with family and friends on Molokai.  Anytime I get to go on short trip with Kelia and Seth Moniz, I’m a happy Uncle.  We ended up catching lobsters this night and had a second party which included tequila!

Finding a travel partner is hard.  You are stuck with each other the entire time of the trip so you better be able to get along.  We’ve been doing this for decades.

Last year when Tokura-san was in Hawaii, we had a great time surfing in town.  I always like to surf with him because he’s very respectful to others, knows proper surf etiquette, and is respected by everyone.  One of the coolest surfers you will ever meet.

I still remember the day I got my first Blackberry.  This was the start of the smart phone era.  Not sure if that was good or bad.

I’m coming up on 20 years of headstands that’s included in my daily routine.  That’s about 7,300 headstands I’ve done in my life.  This was on a beautiful beach in El Salvador 10 years ago.  Namaste!
