Diamond Shot of the Day!

omg, look at Fujisawa, Japan yesterday.  i use to live there so i know how crowded it can get.  what happened to the social distancing???  i really don’t think everybody in Japan knows how serous this virus is.  once again to my loved ones in Japan, “you guys didn’t even see the worst yet!  and if you keep on doing this, it will get super worst!  so please stay away from people so this virus will go away!  and i want it to go away soon because i went to go back to Japan soon!  so please! as of today, there were 177,200 deaths in the world related to the coronavirus.  doesn’t that number scare you guys???”

here in Hawaii, even us surfers social distance.  i was out at Diamond Head this morning and people were actually spread out.  and for this very reason, maybe thats why we only had 12 deaths so far…

seen my friend Stan out.  haven’t seen him in a long time.  stoked to see each other, but the handshake and hug can wait till later.

a couple of my friends ask me where i’ve been surfing.  i’ve been surfing places not that crowded.  and if it is, i stay away from everybody.  by the way, the Hawaii government just extended the lockdown until May 31.  yes, still stay home…

whenever i’m in the water, i’m always looking to connect for the shot of the day.  that happened at 6:43 this morning right as the sun rose. how big and beautiful is that!

Bowmore Whiskey Cough Medicine…

check out the tourist busses stored in the parking lot in Japan.  it just goes to show you how things are shutting down.  and this is happening worldwide…

look at the before and after photo of the pollution in Delhi.  Mother Nature has its ways… i got this bottle of whiskey about 8 years ago from Tamrua’s store down my street.   8 years ago, this bottle cost around $500 and i remember it being super strong so i didn’t like it.  thought the years, i actually used it for cough medicine.  when i got a cold, i would take a shot before i went to sleep.  it worked pretty good. then it sat in a box for the past 4 years.  i was cleaning up and found it so i recently opened it and had a glass.  omg, it was so good!  smokey and smooth!!!   so i looked it up and this bottle of whiskey now cost $2,300.  omg!  that was the most expensive cough medicine in the world.  haha…now my 2 favorite mugs…  thank you Dove for 28 years of support…
