another great day with a great person. Shimizu-san from Yamaguchi prefecture in japan went from full suits in the japan sea, to trunks in the pacific ocean. had a super good surf session at bowls this morning. the waves were so good when we paddled out and there were only a few surfers out. was so happy to see Shimizu-san catching so many good waves and surfing really good.

wow, i had an amazing time with Mr. and Mrs. Takashima today. two honeymooners on their first trip to hawaii. Yo-san’s been surfing for a year, and Rika-san surfed for her first time today. i was so stoked to see them riding so many waves. we surfed, went to teddy’s hamburger, whole foods, anno ki nano ki wakarani no ki, kamehameha statue, patagonia, stable, waiola shave ice, and surfed again. two very energetic surfers that kept going and going. want to thank Sadamori-san at Frenzy surf in okayama for sending me this lovely couple. long but very happy and satisfying day! and if you seen their smiles, you would know what i mean.
