Waterworld…

Good morning 3:40am.

Diamond Head waist high and good for kite surfing.
Trade winds at 20mph getting stronger later.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Since the waves were small today, we decided to do something a little different.  Surf and snorkel, or surf snorkel.  

Sometimes it’s good to paddle around and search for interesting things.  You see the ocean a lot different than being on a boat.  

And when you find a good spot, you don’t have to anchor the boat.  All you do is jump off your surfboard and see nature at its finest moments.  

After snorkeling, we paddled from Waikiki to Kaisers.  The waves were way better than expected.  Then we paddled to Rockpiles and ended up at Bowls.  

We surfed 3 spots today and also got to snorkel. 

I was snorkeling and when a wave came, I surfed it.  Then I went back to snorkeling.  This was the first time i’ve done something like this, and not the last.  

Glad we had our cameras today because every angle was beautiful. 

Some of the guys out surfing must have thought we were crazy.  Yes we are crazy!

Yesterday was one of the smallest surf days of the year so we decided to explore the other side of the island.  It was pretty dam beautiful!  In a couple days, there will be some big waves right here from the storm called “Calvin.”  We will probably be back here. 

Snorkeled the shore break and found some treasure and trash.

I’ve been a huge fan of UFC, K-1, MMA, Boxing, and every type of fighting.  But what fascinates me are the underground “Fight Club” events like this.  This was the most exciting event I’ve ever witnessed.  These 2 girls were like animals.  Trying to kill each other for 3 rounds.  Nonstop action!  

My nephew Micah Moniz was the main event of the night.  When I saw his opponent, I was nervous.  He was big, calculated, and had a lot of fighting experience.  I was literally on the ropes watching the action.  Thank goodness Micah didn’t get hit that hard because of his excellent defense.  When I saw Micah connect a right hook, I knew he was going to be ok.     

Our family and friends went to watch and support Micah.  He’s been training at Nito Boxing and he’s even more dangerous than he was before.  Good job Micah!
