hello from hawaii. wow, i’m soooo glad to be back home. it was a long 6 week trip but really fun. went from cold japan to hot indonesia to warm hawaii. as soon as i got off the plane, i was so happy to take my first step back on this beautiful island. it’s cloudy and raining today but i still love it. as for the waves? i don’t know and pretty much won’t care for a few days. i surfed my last wave in the mentawai’s and i want to keep that memory alive as long as possible. for today, i’m going to sleep, check emails, do computer work, and eat lau lau and poi.
then tomorrow, i’ll finally go get my tooth fixed. remember that toothache? i still have it and had it the whole time. i couldn’t get it fixed in japan and it was killing me every single day. but after a while, i started to get use to the pain. then when i went to japan yesterday and bit into my ice cream, it all came back…
i opened my iphoto and this was the last photo i took before i left on my trip. i didn’t realize how blue hawaii is…. awesome yeah? anyway, now is the fun part of uploading over 10,000 photos i took in japan, yoran, okinawa, shikoku, tokyo, shonan, wakayama, bali, mentawai, and malaysia. give me 2 days and i should be able to show you some pretty amazing people i met along the way. and also the awesome waves we surfed. stay tuned….
