Up and Riding Kahala Mall OPEN!!!

272

good morning. another gloomy cloudy wet day here in hawaii. small waves and crowded. today will be my last day of uploading video and i swear i will never do it again. a few months ago, i was really thinking of getting a video camera but now, now freakin way!! it just takes too much time on the computer and i’m trying to find a way to get away from my computer. i feel like my computer is running my life and i don’t like it. i started another big project yesterday morning sorting out all my photos from the last mentawai trip and i have some pretty cool photos that i didn’t even know of. i put together a little book for my memory and am going to get it printed out later this week. pretty stoked on that! anyway, hope you enjoy your day! i’ll be stuck in front of this computer all day today!!! yeah!!! yeah right….
i went down to kahala mall yesterday to attend the big grand opening! check out the photos…

imai and seth. hawaii’s future!!!

up and riding staff. go there and enjoy the friendly smiles..

kelia autograph session. nice smile kelia… oh, and nice postcard girl. i wonder who took that photo? haha…

seth was signing autographs too. also a nice postcard. i wonder who took that photo? haha…

i don’t think kelia has any clue on how many autographs she will have to sign in japan. seth already had his fair share…

i think it’s pretty cool how jake mizuno put together the grand opening. surfing is all about the kids. and to give the kids this kind of opportunity is pretty amazing…

the media was there and pretty much everybody in the industry. i’m glad i went to check it out. it was good to see old time friends….
**anyway, congratulations to Up and Riding in kahala mall. wish you guys the best!!
**last, check out this video my sister put together from her and kelia’s trip. good job sis!!! now you can edit all my video footage.. haha…
