japanese competitive life of surfing contests. just hanging out at the beach all day long cheering on friends. here is the Toda-san fan club gallery!
at contests like these, everybody wins! here is the lucky winner of the paddling contest. winner of a round trip ticket to Bali! awesome!
and yes, the coolest hand made trophies ever! i wish i could win one of these! super classic 40 years of Dove Wetsuits.
twice at night, i walked into the wrong room. yeah, all the doors were unlocked so it was easy to make that mistake. our room was 415 but for some reason, i kept on going to the 5th floor and walking into 515. the first time i walked in, i saw different bags and stuff lying around the room. opps, wrong room! then the second time was after the party going back to our room. i walked in and seen a girl in the bathroom brushing her teeth! omg! wrong room again! i said sorry and closed the door. unbelievable i made the same mistake twice in one night. haha. i think my memory is getting bad.
waking up the next morning and seeing this is depressing. you just know you’re in for a long lazy day. i still can’t believe we all fit in our tiny room. haha.
sitting at the airport on standby getting hungry. i walk around and see something i haven’t eaten on this trip. sush! so i order the king plate for 1700 yen or $14. yummy!
i have a favor to ask. i was too busy filling up drinks all night so i didn’t take too many photos at the party. if you have some, please send it to me because i want to try to remember what happened. haha. great time, great memories, and waiting for the great photos. mahalo!
