we spent so many hours in the ocean yesterday. sup’ing, snorkeling, paddling, diving, and enjoying. Asayama-san on the SUP and looking really good!
the dolphins kept on circling us. very playful and very natural.
i was just sticking my camera underwater to see what kind of shots i would get. and i wasn’t disappointed at all.
Asayama-san was super stoked to swim with the dolphins for the first time in his young life.
a few dolphins were swimming away from me, then i made some dolphin noises and one of them came right up to my face to talk to me. it was so amazing looking right into his eyes and watching his smile.
super stoked on how this photo turned out. i love it! we are one!
dove down about 50′ and seen this beautiful shell so i grabbed it.
i thought to myself “eat it, or release it.” we released it. wasn’t craving for clam meat today.
driving back to town and watching the construction for the rail project. very depressing for me to see this after swimming in the most beautiful ocean in the world.
on the way back stopped for some filipino food. my favorite!
the pork balls and brain cooked in its own blood is my favorite. you can call it filipino curry.

Dawn to Dusk Lucky Day!
woke up really early to do something different. first went to watch the sunrise at diamond head before starting out the day. it was beautiful.
then went to the west side. not to chase ahi, but to swim with dolphins.
took some planning, timing, and lots of effort until we finally found our pod of dolphins. and yes, it was amazing!
got some amazing underwater photos of the dolphins playing around.
we must have paddled in the open ocean for about 6 kilometers. and in-between free diving, just having an amazing time. Asayama-san’s first time to the west side, and first time swimming with dolphins. it was as beautiful as it gets out here.
got back to town in the afternoon and still didn’t get enough ocean. so headed back out for the amazing sunset.
woke up at 3:30am. now going to sleep at 10:30pm. a very long fulfilling day! good night.
