Mega and Garut stayed at my house the first time they came to hawaii. i took them to bowls, took them to pipeline, and introduced them to the boys everywhere. we had a great time and by looking at this photo, you can see who is into peace, and who is into gangster style. haha.
omg, today was so beautiful again!
had a sandwich for lunch. and tried a black tea latte for the first time. i loved it!
want to thank Koike-san for the miso soup! going to take it on my next molokai trip.
and thank you Matsuda-san for the gifts. i could really use this!
i surfed this morning and got some good photos of Kondo-san. then afternoon when i went surfing with Yamada-san, i dropped my gopro in the waves. i lost it!!! i was super bummed out. not because i lost the $400 gopro, but because i lost all the photos in it. BUT, i thought positive and guess what? i found it 2 hours later!!! and you’re not going to believe where it was! i was so happy! but for now, i better go to sleep because 7 hours in the water today and 2 hours of shock took out all the energy in me. good night.
