Matsu, Saito-san, Kiku-chan, Kanae-san, Toko-san, and Miki-chan.  it&#8217;s 2am and i don&#8217;t know what to do.  jet lag at its finest.  i must have slept only a few hours in the airplane.  then on the train ride up here, i was scared to fall asleep because i knew that i wouldn&#8217;t be able to wake up.  and if i missed my stop, i&#8217;d end up in aomori.  it&#8217;s pretty cold here but the people around me warm me up.  it seems like i haven&#8217;t been to japan for a long time even though it&#8217;s my 8th time this year.  i love this place and i love the people.  tomorrow we will be driving around ishinomaki and we&#8217;re hoping to see improvements.  i have a few hours to sleep so better try.  but before, i&#8217;d just like to say something to Kiku-chan.  hey Kiku-chan, it is always so nice to see you.  your strength gives us power.  you are like family to us and you keep reminding me how precious life is.  i hope to see you again sometime soon.  take care and keep warm.  We Are One!<br \/>\n**check out the final day of the pipeline masters.  i was in the airplane throughout the whole contest.  glad we there is some amazing video to make me feel like i didn&#8217;t miss anything. awesome and exciting surfing!  and congratulations to Joel Parkinson!  it&#8217;s about time somebody else besides kelly slater wins the world title.  great for the sport of surfing!<br \/>\n[youtube]http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BZ-L-SlYGrM[\/youtube]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>it was a long trip but finally got up here to sendai. it&#8217;s so good to see the christmas lights and Kiku-chan. another mission with very precious people.
