good to see so many people exercising recently.  happy faces because of the early Summer vacation start.good to see the fish i spear being appreciated so much.  now that all restaurants are closed, you won’t find a steamed fish meal like this anywhere except at home.  spent the morning foiling at Ala Moana.  sunny, warm water, and the start of a new South Swell.  dolphins jumping outside and happy surfers inside.  then spent the afternoon replanting and organizing my garden.  Kelia Moniz sighting.  nice truck girl! want to say hello to Narumi-chan!  hope you’re having a great time staying home.  when this coronavirus is all over, it’s your turn to surf!

i waited until sunset because my friends say it’s the best time of the day to fish.  so i got out my pole and tried, tried, and tried.  after about 8 casts, i got board so i quit.  and now i know why i don’t like to fish.  i can’t be patient waiting for something to bite my lure.  i’d rather dive down and hunt it…so i went to free dive and did just that.  i’ve been looking for a broom fish for a long time.  this is my favorite fish because it makes the best sashimi.  so when i saw it, i approached it very calmly and took the shot when i knew i had it 100%.  i can’t wait to eat it!!!

oh, i was diving my favorite turtle spot and didn’t see a single turtle. i thought it was so strange???  then after we came in, my friend said “oh, i saw an aggressive shark swimming right behind you on the surface when you jumped in the water.  it was zig zagging aggressively behind you.”   then i was thinking “no wonder there were no turtles.  they must have sensed the hungry shark and ran away.  and omg, why didn’t you tell me about the shark earlier?????”
