there is a gelato place down my street that is very popular. i went there when it first opened last year and really didn’t care for it. i guess you can say it was average? then i heard it got better recently. so after a long hot day in the ocean, i went to cool down last night. long line with many happy people.

there are so many different flavors. i chose the milk tea flavor. pretty good and yes, way better than last year.

and always tastes better when eating it with family. my little cute nephew Noah Jr.

surfers are still pushing the limits. i’d call this 30′ hawaiian scale, or 65′ regular scale. either way, HUGE!

full moon rise at tantalus. one of the best views in the world!

a terrorist pulled onto a resort beach, took out his machine gun, and killed as many tourists as possible. this use to be things we would only see in movies, but now, it’s all too real.

Why? because nowhere is safe anymore. you fly to a country and sip a martini on a resort beach, then this happens. there are more and more terrorists being born into this world. anything can happen at any given time. so please enjoy your life and live it to the fullest. you just never know when your time will come.

The worlds biggest swimming pool! In Chile. So amazon!

The perfect surfing day in Hawaii.
Have a wonderful day and see you in the water.

want to thank Kyle for the nice filet of ahi. got to eat a lot of spicy tuna sushi with all this top grade hawaiian maguro.

when you get on the freeway and don’t see a single car, you know you are early. so early that you are earlier than the early. been getting up early and enjoying this beautiful island while 90% are still sleeping. when i was younger, i use to be driving home at about this time. now, i’m driving out. i love it.

and to see the sun rising from the horizon is so amazing. the perfect sunrise to sunset weather continues. was going surfing but i’ve been surfing so much that i needed a break.

so i went fishing and diving instead. on the way to my dive spot, i threw out the poles and got lucky.

in fact, i got very lucky. i just ate katsuo tataki for dinner and it couldn’t have been any fresher than this. 7 aku in the cooler!

and to top things off, i got to see nature at its best. till today, i’ve seen over 100,000 dolphin in my life. but today, i seen the biggest dolphin ever! it was HUGE! i actually got scared when it almost jumped over the boat.
back to surfing tomorrow as the summer south swell continues. can’t wait! goodnight.
