super happy to spear a fish yesterday. gave it to my homeless friend and he was super happy too!

Isaiah Moniz is a great guy. he’s been going to Molokai for many years so he’s been on a mission gathering Hawaiian Pro surfers boards to take there for the kids. we were eating dinner at Thanksgiving trying to figure out the best way to get 20 plus boards to Molokai. Mayuki can do it and so can we! it was that fast we decided to go so this is our main mission for this trip. there will be some very happy Hawaiian kids tomorrow!

when i was at the Nakamoto’s house, there was this album of our Japan trip. it was the first time i seen these photos! Jan Ken Po at the temple in Wakayama. haha. i don’t even remember this!!!

after 10 days of being a tour guide, we traveled to Osaka, Wakayama, Taiji, Hiroshima, Okinawa, and even Bali. i was trying to guide 18 people on that trip and the last day, i must have hit the wall! and the whole time, i had a fish fin stuck in my right hand from a month before the trip. it was killing me the whole time and ended up getting surgery to get it removed when i got back. till this day, i have no idea how i pulled that off. but looking back, it was all worth it because we had the most amazing time! i get asked over and over “hey kirby, when are we coming back?” hey, i’m still recovering guys! haha…
