good evening. what a perfect day here in hawaii. windy, shitty waves, and cold!!! i love it. i finally got a chance to catch up on emails, work, and other things i have to get done before i start traveling. passport stuff, ticket stuff, boat stuff, surfboard stuff, diving stuff, and just a lot of stuff….
yesterday we had the tsunami warning so hardly anybody went to the expo. today was different. everybody went!!! wanted to thank russ inouye for doing a great job in putting that event together. that’s my favorite expo of the year…
they were having a poke tasting contest and i didn’t mind waiting in line if it took hours…
they had 3 different types of ahi poke.
1. mayonnaise/green onion style.
2. shoyu/tobiko style.
3. yuzu shoyu style.
i chose #2 because i like tobiko mixed with my poke. gosh, i just wished i had a beer to go along with that….
they were giving free bamboo fishing poles away to every kid that walked in. i told them i was 11 years old but they didn’t believe. anyway, if your down at the blaisdell, you know that there are a lot of papio’s right in the pond. i put bread on these girls poles and asked them to catch me a couple fish for dinner. lucky me!! haha.. just joking… everybody, no fishing allowed in the blaisdell… i use to do it in high school late at night until i got into trouble….
**and last. wanted to thank each and every one of you who sent me an email concerned about the tsunami yesterday. takeshi-san, michiko-san, hiro-san, sophie, masato-san, val, and everybody else!!! it feels pretty dam good have people care about you. thanks again and again and again. i really appreciate it!!!
