i had an awesome time with Okuda-san and the girls this morning. just happy surfers enjoying the ocean so much.
Natsumi-chan is the boss. super bright and intelligent young lady. her first time surfing and she did great!
Sarasa-chan on her first wave too. just enjoying the moment.
Mai-chan caught some long ones. her last one was the biggest set of the day.
Okuda-san is a cool surfer dude from osaka. been surfing 20 years so knows most of the hard core surfers i do. had a great conversation talking about isanoura and surfing history in japan.
and Okuda-san caught some good waves on the outside.
gosh, i love this photo. just the beauty of surfing in hawaii. thank you Okuda-san and the girls. had so much fun surfing and laughing all morning long!
and yes, the boss Natsumi-san wanted to eat acai bowl so we ate acai bowl. nice way to cool down after a hot surf session.
then went to pick up Asayama-san in the afternoon and headed straight to the mountains for a hike. waves small this afternoon so figure we’d get some exercise before the swell hits tomorrow!
