Passport Time….

291

good morning. well, it’s been 18 days since i haven’t been able to surf or dive. the longest dry “out of the water” streak in my surfing career. and i still have 14 more days until i can grab a surfboard or spear gun and do what i love to do. luckily the waves have been terrible here. well, not terrible, but not up to hawaii’s north shore season standards. the winds are still strong and there are only small swells heading our way. my doctor gave me the ok to fly on an airplane so that’s what i’m going to do. i got my camera, suitcase, and passport ready to go back to work. my flight leaves at 1pm and i’m freakin excited to go back to travel again. i’m backed up again on my emails so please be patient. but wanted to thank everyone for their support.
as for the earrings, i’ve decided who to give them too and although it was a hard decision, i think i made the right one. thanks to all of you who sent emails. i wish i had 30 pairs so i can give all of you one. i’ll post the wishing bracelet soon so stay tuned. anyway, have a great day and see you back when my airplane lands. “Boku ga Umareta, Konno shima no sora o”[:????$B”L(B?:][:????$B”L(B?:][:????$B”L(B?:]

when i first started out free diving in high school, i didn’t have any money so i couldn’t buy any good equipment. i just borrowed from friends. now that i’m super into the sport, i have to have everything. for surfing, i have a board for any condition and any size of wave. and for diving, i have a gun for any kind of condition and any size of fish. but my guns are all on the small side. i like to bring the fish in really close before i take the kill shot. but if i miss the brain on a big fish, goodbye gun!!

i finally opened my suitcase to start taking things out. i came across this envelope. i was wondering what it was??? oh my gosh!! i remembered getting this envelope at my hotel in okinawa that was sent to me. i just stuck it in my suitcase and totally forgot about it. junior sent me his “A-Flame Photo Slideshow” DVD. i can’t wait to see it. thanks so much junior!!!
**oh, the waves came up all over today. a medium size north swell in the county. laniakea looks 4′. town has waves too. bowls is chest high with only 5 guys out. it’s 6;30am so get on it before the winds pick up again. chau…
