what an exciting day! i was driving to the beach for an evening surf session when my friend Dr. Brent called me up to invite me for an evening dive. i u-turned, grabbed my dive stuff, and headed down to the harbor. a 20% of me wanted to surf, but the other 80% wanted to dive. so dive it was! and while we were out on the boat, the moon was out and looking at diamond head felt like a dream!
a boat filled with very educated people. doctors, dentists, professors, researchers, photographers, bikini designers, and me the surfer. i love meeting people, especially cool people!
i got home at 7:45pm, changed, and met my friends down at imanastei at 8:15. they told us a 1 hour wait so instead, we ate at Doraku. it was my first time and the food was awesome. anything that has to do with japan is awesome!
this restaurant is new and located on kapiolani blvd. happy hour starts at 9pm so the food and drinks are pretty much half price.
the super hot spicy tuna rolls were super hot and spicy. a doraku signature dish.
wanted to wish Kristi a happy birthday! thank you for driving us home. thank you John for the wonderful dinner, and thank you Jin for the laughs. friends forever!
it’s 1:15am and time for me to sleep. i feel so fortunate to have another wonderful day filled with friends and experiences. i’ll wake up in 4 hours and be ready for another fun filled day. i can’t wait so i better get going to sleep. oyasuminasai from hawaii!
