Izumo Taisha.

hey, have you ever seen a yellow kumu? the first time i seen one was near a secluded island off indonesia. i freaked out because kumu’s are usually red. the second time i seen one was in the maldives. it was bright neon yellow and looked so cool. i was just wondering how it would taste. ever eat one before? the eyes and whole body was bright yellow. pretty dam beautiful.

speaking of beautiful, my niece just came back from a long world modeling tour. she’s just here for 2 days and will be off island again. having lunch with her made me realize how, and why she is where she is today. this girl has dreams, this girl wants to achieve those dreams, and this girl can and will be on top of the modeling world. watch out for Kelia Moniz. i told her “hey, tough job yeah?” she told me “no, i love what i’m doing.” good girl! follow Kelia Moniz on her official Go-Naminori english and japanese blog.

ok, i finally got the call from the guys who ran over my surfboards insurance company. they will let me know the damage and how they will compensate my loss. i will call them today after lunch and i hope it’s good news. good or bad, i’ll keep you posted so you know what to do when somebody runs over your surfboard in the future. and if you ever think that will never happen to you, think again. it was my first time in my 35 year surfing experience.

Thanks for the photo Sis! OTW.
