every time i take Mayuki out, i pass by this huge white yacht that is always sparkling clean! there is a guy cleaning it almost everyday and i haven’t seen a cleaner boat in my life. so after all these years, i finally go to the guy cleaning the boat and ask “hey, what do you use to clean this boat?” he showed me the products. then i asked “thanks, and hey, i want to hire you to clean Mayuki!” he came to see Mayuki and said “ok, i can make this sparkling clean.” so yeah, we made a deal! 
so he told me what to buy and i went to buy it. i’ll never question a man that keeps a boat that clean. 
over a $100 later of supplies, i put it on Mayuki and made an appointment for the guy to shine her up. i can’t wait to see the results! if it’s anything close to the boat he keeps clean, i’ll be a happy man…
i heard about the “Aloha Aina” march down Waikiki but couldn’t believe my eyes! it was well organized, and most of all, well supported. well over 20,000 people!
when i saw all the people walking down Waikiki, i couldn’t believe that this many people live on this island. it seemed like the whole island was there. 
they were walking in peace. all they want to do is get the message to the government that it’s time to listen to the people of Hawaii.
when they started chanting, i had chicken skin. i felt very emotional and very proud to be from Hawaii. if the Hawaiian King’s and Queen’s saw what happened to their land, they would be in tears. enough is enough. it’s time to stop and listen the the people of Hawaii, not the government and corporations that make money off our land…
Mauna Kea is on another island, but the people on this island can feel the pain. the people have come together to protect their sacred land…
i sent Rikita-san some photos of the march today, and he sent me this. haha. look at little Princess Leia! can’t wait to meet you Princess…
