i had a great time surfing with Abe-san and Marin-kun. I had Marin-kun on my nose of my board and we rode together all morning long. he was a little nervous at first, but after a few long rides, he couldn’t help but have fun. Abe-san is a great father and a great person. i had fun with you guys! see you in hawaii again and keep on surfing!
