i get up early this morning, spend 2 hours online deciding where to go. and finally decide and book my flight to Yangon, Myanmar! confirmed and leaving tomorrow! so stoked! i started getting excited!

then went to pick up the boys for another morning of boot camp.

the boys came prepared! check out Nagashi-san on a set! and look at Yoshino-san behind taking the drop. awesome wave for the boys!

once your fix some minor things, surfing becomes very easy. and when you start to look up, you will see a whole new world!

great surfing Nagashi-san! and nice smile!

rescue helicopter flying pretty low yesterday. hope everything was ok.

when i was paddling out, some of the guys were telling me that the waves were super small and slow. maybe it was earlier, but not now. check out Yoshino-san on the nice set!

better balance, better style, and better life.

great job Yoshino-san! so stoked to see you enjoying the ride.

these boys run a ramen shop in chiba. so tasting the best pho in hawaii was a must. glad they liked it! see you guys bright and early tomorrow morning! get ready for some golden sunrise surfing!

i had a weird feeling about this trip so when i came home, i checked the weather for Yangon. omg! thunderstorms everyday!!! what’s going on???

opps, i forgot about the super typhoon! it’s going to dump heavy rain all over south/east asia. so i cancelled my Yangon trip and looked for another destination.

look how beautiful this is! if everything goes right, i’ll be here in a few days. but once again, things change very fast around here. nobody knows until i actually board the airplane tomorrow. haha.
