there once use to be a bowling alley called Kam Bowl that sold the best oxtail soup. oxtail or better known in japan as “tail” soup is my favorite. i use to go to Kam bowl at least 1x a week to eat it. but ever since they closed a few years ago, i had no place to go. then my mom and i went to another bowling alley last night that served even better oxtail soup.

check out how they serve it. a little local/japanese style. it cost $13.95 but they give a lot.

i was looking forward to what was on the bottom.

then finally, a hot bowl of oxtail soup. a local favorite in hawaii that tastes so good. i wish i could tell you where it is but the guy told me they always run out so i’ll keep it a secret for a little while more. 1x a week, i’m there!

dove owner tokura-san turned 60 a few years ago and i was there on a boat in the mentawai’s to celebrate his special birthday. i shot over 3000 photos. about 40 were published. the other lay deep into my old photo library. ones like these will be lost forever. but thought i’d show you a few before it’s gone. i remember tokura-san passing me by as i was going to dive under the wave. i stuck my camera out and snapped this last moment. pretty cool memory! i wish i had a photo of myself like this one because i think this is the best view ever!

Rainbows everywhere!
