Dive, Beer, Dinner, and Friends

had a fun time this afternoon hanging out with my friends Hayato and Naoka. the conditions weren’t the greatest for diving, but we went anyway. caught some fish, had a beer at sunset time, then came home to eat the freshest catch of the day.

Naoka’s been here for the past 3 months. i’ve known him for the past 8-9 years and it’s the happiest i’ve ever seen him. getting the aloha in him. just look at his smile. Naoka goes back to japan tomorrow but you can guarantee he’ll be back soon. remember the aloha, and spread the aloha!

going back to the harbor after surfing and diving, i could understand how Naoka’s feeling. i’m sure it’s pretty dam good.

we came back to my house and i prepared my special dish. it’s fresh steamed kumu that will make your stomach very happy. can you believe these fish were swimming in the ocean just a few hours before? it don’t get any fresher than this.

Hayato, Naoka, and i had a wonderful dinner, talk, laughs, drinks, and this awesome meal we hand picked from the sea. it’s 11:30pm and time for my warm bed. expect epic waves coming in tomorrow afternoon on the north shore. good night everyone!
