peking duck sounds really good. i don’t think anyone would notice one missing right?

we spent so many hours in the ocean yesterday. sup’ing, snorkeling, paddling, diving, and enjoying. Asayama-san on the SUP and looking really good!

the dolphins kept on circling us. very playful and very natural.

i was just sticking my camera underwater to see what kind of shots i would get. and i wasn’t disappointed at all.

Asayama-san was super stoked to swim with the dolphins for the first time in his young life.

a few dolphins were swimming away from me, then i made some dolphin noises and one of them came right up to my face to talk to me. it was so amazing looking right into his eyes and watching his smile.

dove down about 50′ and seen this beautiful shell so i grabbed it.

i thought to myself “eat it, or release it.” we released it. wasn’t craving for clam meat today.

driving back to town and watching the construction for the rail project. very depressing for me to see this after swimming in the most beautiful ocean in the world.

the pork balls and brain cooked in its own blood is my favorite. you can call it filipino curry.
