Today, I spend the day with the kids.  Hands on experience.  No iPhones, no iPads, and no TV.  This is how I teach.  

Period 1:  Science-  Learning about rocks, crystals, and their origins.  Rocks are not just for throwing.

Period 2:  Architecture-  Learning about shapes, foundation, and symmetry.  Balance is everything.

Period 3:  Games-  Learning how to play fair, wait your turn, and how to lose.  Because someone always has to lose.

Period 4:  Nature-  Learning how to look up into the sky and observing the ever changing weather patterns.  And to wear sunscreen.

Recess:  Learning the rewards of hard work.  Kids will do anything for a pop-tart.  Good job boys!

Yesterday once more:  Good waves and good vibes…

Good morning 4:30am.
Ala Moana waist high and good.
Diamond Head chest high and fun.
Trade winds at 18mph.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Forgot to upload some photos from yesterday.  The clouds were amazing once again.  And so were the waves.

Yesterday was one of those rare days when only locals surfers were out.  Lots of waves and lots of happy surfers.  

I dropped in on Malcolm and was watching him trying to get out of the impact zone.

And he came out with a smile!  

This morning was a lot smaller and inconsistent.  But still good to be in the ocean doing off the lips.  Local time again.

I like Kawika’s surfing style.  Super smooth and strong.  Also one of the nicest guys out there.

I bought a new grill for my BBQ and that’s all I’ve been using recently.  Steak cooked medium rare to perfection!
