Ryo-san asked me &#8220;can you surf all day in hawaii?&#8217;  i thought that was funny but it&#8217;s not because when i come to think about it, you can only surf in okinawa on the high tide.  on low tide, forget or you will die.  you only have about 3 hours\/day to surf in okinawa and that&#8217;s the main reason it gets so crowded at times.  if we could only surf 3 hours\/day in hawaii, i&#8217;d go crazy!  so Ryo-san and Miki-san were super happy to be able to surf 2 rounds for a total of 5 hours water time in one single day.  probably their first time doing that.  we had a fun day and as soon as i met them, we got along fine.  people from okinawa are so cool!  thanks Ryo-san and MIki-san for the super fun day.  good surf, good food, and good laughs.  mensore!<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/photo-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/photo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16506\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nevery time i see a japanese toilet, i laugh because of my experience when i first came to japan.  i used this toilet backwards for 6 months and nobody told me anything.  i thought the japanese were weird for having the toilet paper in the back of the toilet.  for number 2, i use to face the door and it took some talent to reach back and grab the toilet paper.  now, it&#8217;s easy.  and the funnier thing is that i bet you a lot of foreigners are using it backwards till this day.  haha.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i had a wonderful day of surfing with Ryo-san and Miki-san. they are 2 wonderful surfers from okinawa who came to hawaii to surf for the first time.
