Shark Country

after burning up in the hot sun yesterday, i called Kimura-san and Hayato and invited them to my run away spot. a surf spot that takes me away from the wild weekend crowd.

Hayato jumps in first, then Kimura-san. i watch them paddle out and i wait with my camera.

then i seen this big shadow swimming right in back of Kimura-san. it was a shark! i was going to yell “shark!!!” but i decided not too. if i did, we wouldn’t have had a great time. so i waited until after we all paddled in and told them. 5 minutes later, another shark swims by. i didn’t name this spot “tiger point” for nothing. you are on your own if we surf out there.

Hayato got some really good waves.

this is the first time i took Hayato there and i’m sure it won’t be the last. a good place to relax and enjoy surfing. just don’t think about sharks. haha.
