Hiyori-chan came the last 2 years but his year is much different as we will enjoy each and ever minute together. welcome to hawaii my loving friends! i am so happy for you to be here in hawaii!

Kaito-kun and Chiho-chan’s first time to hawaii. everything is probably a culture shock for them.

we had so much fun today. riding around in the back of the truck, the kids getting lost, and lots of laughs and smiles.

speaking about laughs. i really think that surfing can bring the best out of everyone. i see it every single day. yesterday, Nao-san had the brightest smile after she caught a wave. it was just so amazing to see her enjoying the moment.

and yes, yoga helps surfing and surfing helps yoga. they go hand in hand. if you can do yoga, you can surf. if you can surf, you can do yoga. and if you do both, you will live a happy stress free life.

all it takes for me to do something is to start something. once i start it, i will finish it.

everything is well balanced and just needs another coat of paint. super stoked to finally fix something that needed fixing for years. thank you grandpa for teaching me by example. i couldn’t have done it without you.
surfing all day tomorrow. can’t wait so better go to sleep. goodnight!
