Daigo-kun likes to fish. last time he was here, he caught fish so he wanted to catch again. i went free diving at this new spot last week and seen some big Moana’s. so i took him right on the exact same spot, told him to throw in the pole, and first try he caught a Moana!

it’s pretty funny because this was the exact Moana i seen here last week. look how happy Daigo-kun was! i ended up releasing it back to the ocean so next time i can let another kid catch it. haha.

i didn’t have my speargun so of course hundreds of fish swam right up to my face. i could have grabbed big Mu’s with my bare hand. i even tried too. haha.

Koguma-san asked me how 67 year old Asayama-san can dive so deep. i told him “practice and you can do it too.” here is Koguma-san practicing.

during lunch, i was talking to Koguma-san. he told me i’m so lucky to have Mayuki. i told him “i could be happy without a girlfriend, but i couldn’t by happy without Mayuki.” and i really meant it.
