Bali Bol

311

omg, i was walking on the streets in Denpasar looking at the furniture shops when a guy on a bike sped pass me and yelled “Kirby!!!”  he did a U-turn and came back.  i said  “who are you???”  he took off his mask and helmet and said “brah, it’s BOL!”  we were in total shock because we haven’t seen or talked to each other in many many years!  and we meet on a random street in front of a furniture store?  that’s crazy!  

we sit down and start talking and talking.  catching up on years and years that just flew by.  i knew Bol since he was 13 years old so we have a solid connection.  he’s a Husband and a Father now so our talk is not about clubs and chicks anymore, it’s about parenting and surviving.  i’m so happy to see this kid grow up to become a solid adult.  if you don’t know who Bol is, try to google Made Adi Putra ‘Bol’  and you will see how famous this guy is.

Jetstar finally contacts me and says “sorry for the inconvenience but we found your board bag in Australia.”  i replied “please bring it to my hotel ASAP because i need it now!!!”   not even an hour later, a driver showed up with it.  

i don’t even look at the surfboards because i don’t need it anymore.  i just grabbed my foil stuff out, put it together, and went out for an amazing foil session.  omg, i’m so happy now.  i forgive everything and everyone!  haha…
