snapper curry from Da Spot. Excellent!

Hey Mirin-kun, fun ride yeah? Enjoy surfing!

my cut. i always stress to my friends not to stand on the reef while they surf in hawaii. so on the way in to the beach yesterday, i stood on the reef. haha. nice slice on my foot. i’m just glad it was me and not somebody else. this is part of my job and i love every inch of pain that comes with it! squeeze some lime over it, put a bandage, and i’m good to go!
1 more day till japan, 2 more days till okinawa. i’m starting to get a little scared. haha.
