gosh, been spending some long quality hours in the ocean having so much fun. surfed with Matsumoto-san this morning. she’s a yoga instructor and had the most amazing balance! i don’t think she even fell???

great job Matsumoto-san! i’m so happy you enjoyed surfing in hawaii so much. namaste!

Asou-san did great too. this was his first wave. beautiful sun, beautiful water, and beautiful day!

great job Asou-san! hope you both enjoy the rest of your vacation in hawaii.

another wonderful day for me surfing with such cool people from toyama. keep on surfing! then went to pick up Asayama-san and Shimada-san for an afternoon session. waves good all day long!

i swear i had 3 bbq’s in the past week! eating meat, meat, and meat. last night was at Reid’s house and i ate and drank more than i wanted to. felt like a pig before i slept last night.

how could you not eat, eat, and eat? good food, good friends, good drinks, good talk, and good laughs.

ate some chicken noodle soup yesterday for lunch. healthy and happy.

then had a pork bowl for lunch today. i think i better eat some vegetables soon. too much meat and i’m feeling pretty heavy now.
more perfect summer days on the way. i just checked my schedule and i don’t have a day off in a very very long time. but hey, i’m in the ocean so no complaints here.

it’s so crazy that Travel and Leisure Magazine named Nihiwatu Resort the #1 hotel in the world for 2016. now i’m even happier i went there in april so i could experience the #1 hotel in the world. score!

Ocean’s Magazine in japan came out with the hawaii article. stoked to have so much laughs with some awesome surfer friends.

want to thank Asayama-san for the wonderful gifts.

i love custard cake!

was at ala moana and seen some classic ford cars. this one cost $500,000. omg!

i thought it was pretty cool. BUT,

this car caught my eye. a classic ford mustang. this one will cost around $50,000. so if i had a choice between both cars, i would choose this mustang.

and i’m always fascinated with engines. this one was so clean.

48 webbers? cool!

this is the inside.

so when my dream of having a house with a 10 car garage comes true, i’d probably have a classic mustang in my collection.

Yesterday morning @ the office.
Good morning 6am.
Ala Moana chest high and good!
Diamond Head shoulder high and fun.

Sunny and very warm day.
Going surfing.
Have a wonderful day!
