Tokushima Awaodori Festival….

391


good evening. i went to the awaodori festival in tokushima lastnight. it was super cool. i couldn’t believe how many people were there. now i know why i couldn’t get a flight into tokushima all week. i’ll post some photos later. anyway, summer vacation is coming to an end in japan so i’m stoked. now it will be easier to move around and the i can to places faster. got a pretty dam big south/west swell creeping up to japan. check this out….

look at the eye of this thing? it’s already upgraded to a catagory 5 super typhoon. wind speeds are clocking in at 260kph. it’s forecasted to make a direct hit to taiwan. the waves down there must be 15′ + hawaiian scale. the philippines must be going off right now. gerry and the boys down at cloud 9 are probably getting barreled. i wish i were there. as for now, we’re safe here in japan but expect big waves starting saturday. got my guns out and am ready to go. this is the reason why i’m here and i’m so dam excited….

you got to love this swell forecast. big waves with perfect weather in japan. it’s going to be another good week of surf. i just hope it cools down. yesterday was 100 degrees here in japan. freaking hot…..

check out my lunch the other day. $12 for all of this. why don’t we have these kind of lunches in hawaii?
