i love japanese ramen, especially the one with the red sign in nishi-azabu. 850 yen and 5 pounds heavier. haha.

it’s so funny how i was at the real Tsukiji Market in tokyo just a few days ago and last night i went to Tsukiji Market at Ala Moana Shopping Center. had a family dinner there with the all you can eat buffet. a totally different experience.

so stoked to spend some time with the boys Josh and Seth. hard to believe the are almost grown men in the international surfing spotlight. they surf against each other in the same heat in round 2 and that’s going to be fun to watch. i’m sure they will work together to make it happen! good luck boys!

the buffet there is about $35/each and has everything you can imagine. probably the best buffet in hawaii.

all i go for is the crab legs! i’m sure i ate over $40 worth last night.
but after experiencing both Tsukiji Markets, i prefer Japan’s! the feeling i had in there was just amazing. i felt like i was in a part of history that will be be gone forever. happy, but sad.

Tiny waves today.

Nice conditions everywhere.
Going surfing but where?
Have a wonderful day!
