A sunny fall day

A beautiful morning at the beach.
Not great. Waves were better than when I took this picture…I suppose that is why I stopped surfing to take this snapshot.

Blogging on the go

I just got a new iPhone 4s. I am hoping that the convenience of mobile blogging will help me write more. Here’s a few pictures I took with my new phone.

Long time, no posts…

Well, I haven’t been to the beach yet this winter… Hopefully, next week I’ll be able to get in a session or two.

Here’s a screen shot of my interview on Fuji TV a few weeks ago. I think they talked to me for about 10 minutes to make a 4-second clip. Haha

For those of you that don’t read Japanese, I was commenting about how difficult it looks to fold the book covers that the bookstores give customers.

Haven’t been in the water for a couple of weeks. The wave forecast wasn’t very optimistic, but I really wanted to get in a session.

I planned to meet at 6:30 at Yoshida but when I arrived, there was only 1 person there and he wasn’t getting ready to surf… Oh.

After taking a peek, I understood why. We then checked out Shizunami – it was a little better with about 20 or do surfers along the length of the beach.

Where was everyone? Katahama? Omaezaki?

Since it was a beautiful day, we decided to drive the extra 30 minutes of so to check omaezaki and here’s what we saw:

Sapporo

Apparently, this is a very popular wall of signs for tourists. I followed the crowd and snapped this picture.

Looks like a certain somewhat famous tower in Tokyo, doesn’t it?

A view of Mt. Fuji from afar.

August 6th – typhoon fun?

Where are those tetrapods? I know there out there somewhere…

Oh – there they are… I think another point might be a good idea!

Down the road at Katahama:

A little better? A few brave stupid people out…

Next stop: Sakai!

Hard to believe that this is like 5 minutes away!

By 11 am, it looked liked a lake! (and tons of surfers fighting for the remnants of the typhoon)
