good morning. yesterday was my first day off since december so what do i do? go out and enjoy hawaii like a tourist!!!
i pick the nicest hotel in waikiki, i grab my camera and towel and soak up the sun!!! usually locals get kicked out of waikiki pools but yesterday, i wasn’t local, i was a japanese tourist. i couldn’t even speak english. haha…
see the first chair closest to me? that was mine. i couldn’t believe how beautiful hawaii was. and still can’t….
it’s so good to see tourist like me enjoying waikiki. these 2 girls were laughing and playing in the sandbar. imagine coming from cold japan to this? no wonder hawaii is so popular….
teaching kids how to surf is my favorite. i’ll do it on my day off, i’ll do it instead of taking a nap, and i’ll do it no matter how busy i am. just to see their smile makes every effort worth it. to me, photos like this are priceless. this is my friend brandon’s daughter marissa. what a cutie…
after watching channel 7 guy hagi’s weather report last week and seen kelia’s photos, this little 8 year girl was inspired. inspired to surf and be like kelia moniz. it’s amazing the power kelia moniz has on kids….
anyway, it’s pouring rain outside my ho use. north shore is 15′ and junky. town is small, almost flat. after the best winter season in the history of surfing on the north shore, i’d have to say this is the worst spring ever. the waves have been junky. ahhhh…. oh well, i guess it’s time to put all my north shore boards away and get out my 6’0’s that i’ll be using till october. anyway, have a nice day!!!
