China Coming….

204

good morning from narita japan!! here i am sitting in my room half way to my home in hawaii. i open my email and start to go through most of them. being away from my computer for the past 2 weeks was great! but now, i’m so excited getting back to the real world. my mind is pretty fresh and i’m ready to do all kinds of things as far as surfing, diving, and go-naminori.com.
hanging out in malaysia the past few days opened up my eyes. for the past 2 years, i heard all the rumors of the chinese taking over the world economy. now after witnessing what i seen in malaysia, i seen it with my own eyes. i went to malaysia last year too and i could see the difference in just one year. buildings, shopping malls, hotels, and all kind of economic activity all over the place. it’s scary but i’m not going to run away or deny what’s happening. china is a world force and if we sit around just complaining, they will buy out our whole world day by day. so here’s what i plan to do. go back to hawaii and figure out a way to ride the chinese wave. first thing? learn chinese… nihau…

now getting back to our trip. i still can’t believe how good the waves were. i have a video clip of the good day at HT’s i got from a guy at the camp. i watched it over and over and realized how good we got the waves. i’ve seen a lot of videos of ht’s but nothing like the waves we got to surf. the good day only had our boat anchored in the channel. this small head high day had 4 boats. lucky? i think so….
anyway, going back to hawaii tonight. i can’t wait to get home! it’s been a long long time!!! have a nice day!
