 thank you Akko-chan for the treats.  always so nice to see you!  took my little friend out for a ride today.  as soon as i picked her up, she was putting her hands in the air and screaming the whole time.  omg, so embarrassing!    drove to pretty much anywhere.  when you have a cool toy and good company, it don’t matter where you end up… i already got so many requests from my friends in Japan to take them for a ride.  of course guys, that’s what we bought it for!   just tighten up your seatbelt and get ready for some speed!   i haven’t seen Diamond Head this good in a very long time.  there were 78 surfers out at 4pm. looked back on an old hard and uploaded a lot of old photos.  i remember getting my first remote control helicopter.  i turned it on, started to fly it, then i crashed it into my brand new flat screen tv and scratched it all up.  on top of that, the helicopter broke.  haha… back in 1992, i took the jetski off the yacht with a friend and was flying around in the Indian ocean.   we came across a secluded island with a white sandy beach so i drove the jetski right up the beach.  but when it was getting dark and time to leave, it was stuck on the sand!  haha.   so i was almost stuck in the Maldives, which i wouldn’t have mind at all.  and my friend couldn’t stop laughing at me when i was trying to get it back into the water.  dam thing was heavy…when we started Go-Naminori back in 1996, i use to paddle out to Waikiki almost everyday and take photos of everyone, especially Japanese.   i have 546,738 photos on this hard drive so there’s a chance you might be on there too.  stay tuned…
