the boys have been sending me the weather report all week. they said “uncle, no wind on Friday.” i said “really?” usually i check everything and decide everything so this time, i said “ok, i’ll trust the boys and let them make all decisions.” but i knew there will be wind on Friday. haha. anyway, they showed up 30 minutes early because they know i’m not waiting. it’s my way of making sure these guys are prompt…
loaded up Mayuki and left Waikiki at 4:30am. driving in pitch dark, then watched the sun slowly rise. it was so beautiful. 
Seth is smart. he knows to take the front seat because it’s the best view ever.
Benji and Joshua relaxing in the back. smiling the whole way…
took us 4 hours of battling the windy channel, but we arrived at our destination safely. i told the boys “what happened to no wind on Friday?” haha. but they know not to look back and only to look forward so they geared up. 
our goal for the first dive was to be selective and focus on dinner. good job boys.
like i said, before i would do everything for these kids. now they can do everything on their own. so i just watched from the side a very proud uncle. Joshua filleting and getting ready the fresh sashimi for dinner.
when the boys were diving, i went into their cooler and found this! so i ate it! one of the kids bought it so i ate it without telling them. i bet they were looking for it all day blaming each other for eating it. haha.
