omg, i forgot to push the “publish” button so this one didn’t post. oh well, it’s never to late…
i’ve been going to Japan for the past 30 years and never spent New Years day there. it’s always been my dream because i want to eat good food like this! this is Niwa style!
and each meal gets an abalone! hopefully next year i can experience this…
so cool seeing Nao-san enjoying the New Years upside down. haha…
and cheers to everybody at Rise and Shine!
i always want to try something new. and since i’m not a craftsman like Gen, i just the artist do his work…
i’m customizing my foil so it will be faster, looser, and wilder. can’t wait to try it when Gen is done…
Kaira told her Daddy “i want to go surfing!” so Daddy took her to Waikiki and before she even caught her first wave, she said “Daddy, i want to go home.” haha. Daddy is nice so he took her home. if it were me, she ain’t coming home until she catches 10 waves. haha…
it’s snack time! thank you Koguma-san!
Surf Check: Diamond Head Cliffs. So good!!!
i got up early and knew Diamond Head was going to be excellent. and to my surprise, it was even better than i thought. a new South swell is pushing swells in the perfect direction. i was running down the hill because i wanted to foil so badly!
then had to come home and wait for the delivery guys again. every time they come to deliver appliances, something is always wrong. but today, it was looking good!!!
until i saw the corner of the range bent!!! omg! the guy told me he would give me a discount if i kept it. and being that this always happens, i took the discount because this felt like it was never ending. and i’m tired of waiting for Hawaiian time delivery. haha…
then right after the delivery guys left, i went straight back to Diamond Head. once again, it was better than i thought! perfect lines of swells hitting the reef and providing 1 minute long rides on the surfboard. 2 minutes on my foil. haha. get ready for tomorrow because it will be a carbon copy of today. or maybe even better!
