i want to wish Shin-san a very happy birthday! i’m stoked he’s celebrating it in hawaii under this beautiful double rainbow this morning. always good to see you smiling in the ocean Shinsan! cheers!
and thank you Shin-san for taking these photos this morning of Kaneko-san and i. we had a blast!
the waves were perfect again, so was the weather and everything else about today. coming out of the ocean with pure happiness.
when you pull up to the parking lot and get greeted by a huge rainbow, you know it’s going to be an amazing day!
and when you’re leaving the parking lot after 3 hours of fun, you know it’s going to be an amazing afternoon.
if you surfed with me before, you should know this tower really well. yes everyone, it’s the rainbow tower!!!! please don’t forget it!!!! after i took this photo, i couldn’t believe how blue the sky was! 4 straight days of the most perfect weather in the world.
Kaneko-san and his family are hard core fans of Alyssa Wooten. so i called up Alyssa and asked her to join us for a friendly lunch. lucky she had time in her super busy schedule.
Alyssa is super famous in japan. more famous than she probably realizes. it’s good to see her being her normal down to earth self today. thanks girl for coming! and it is always nice to catch up on things.
want to thank Shudo-san for the leaf pie! almost gone already. haha.
this afternoon, i took 5 kids surfing for their first time! it was totally amazing to see the smiles on their cute little faces! another full day of smiles in the sun. i love it!
