Busy is GOOD!

178

good evening. here i am sitting in mcdonalds in kamogawa using the free internet while eating a milkshake. we came to chiba yesterday evening, surfed shida, ate good food, and slept at 1am. then got up at 4:30 am and headed down here. the waves were pretty fun. it was good to get in the water and surf with dave. i shot a few photos for my blog so i’ll download them later tonight. for how small the waves were, i got some sick water shots….

spending 5,460 yen or $60 usd at a store is usual. but spending all that money at a 100 yen or dollar shop is crazy. tammy couldn’t stop going “wow, wow, and wow.” just like my mom…. haha..

everybody has been saying “kirby, you’ve been so busy yeah?” yes i have. but the last 2 weeks was good busy. taking my family around japan and introducing them to my dearest friends i have in japan is like a dream for me. i just wanted them to understand why i love my life so much. and now, they do… i took this photo as they were getting on the train heading to narita airport. to tell you the truth, i was pretty sad. we had too much fun….

everybody in my family loves akko-chan. i met akko-chan in shikoku 18 years ago for a fine magazine photo shoot. we played tennis together and i still have the photos. she would kill me if i put it on my blog. haha…. or did i already? wait, i’ll look for it. akko-chan 18 years ago and akko-chan today look identical. wakai na…

i was on the beach as nao-chan came in from winning the last contest. i’ve known nao-chan for a while now and she’s another person my family loves. go-nao!
