day 2 this morning and having so much fun! Aihara-san surfing super good!
after 10 years, Aihara-san learned how to bottom turn, cutback, and even do a off the lip in just 2 days. i couldn’t believe when i seen him do his first off the lip and make it. you should have seen his happy face. he was so stoked!
and i’m enjoying the stoke too. spending 6 hours/day in the ocean and riding so many good waves. i just love it!
great job Aihara-san. welcome to the new world of progressive surfing. please remember everything you learned.
gosh, the best shave ice in the world!

i ordered my favorite root beer shave ice. i let Aihara-san try it and he almost threw up. haha. i don’t know where root beer originated from, but it has a unique taste. you will ever love it, or hate it. nothing in between.
next time you order a shave ice, try it. and please tell me how you like it. i have yet to meet a japanese person that likes it. haha.
