Japan

               Straight after the IBA Hawaii Shipwrecks contest in Kauai, I traveled to Japan to meet up with my good friend Brody, cousin Jordan, and Sean.  It was brody's first time traveling internationally and I get good deals on Hawaiian airlines so I told him that I'll meet him there and take a mini vacation somehow.  My cousin Jordan lives there and we stayed with him.  Sean also lives there, but lives about 2 hours north.  He came down to Tokyo and stayed at a friends place so we cruised all together.  It was good times.  My goal going to Japan was to eat allkines of food, drink allkines, enjoy the culture, and have fun with some good friends.  I was really stoked and impressed how comfortable Brody was traveling internationally for the first time.  He made lots of friends and wasn't scared to ask for help or directions from the locals.  It was awesome!  I cruised Japan for 7 days and decided to come home early and surprise my dad and family for fathers day.  I'm back home now enjoying the home zones and my beautiful island Maui home!  Life is good :)  aloha and mahalo! 

            Below are a bunch of photos from my mini Japan vacation.  A big thank you to my cousin Jordan for housing us.  Strong!  yessah!
