Visitors


Big Fan of the awkward hug

Bye bye matty, it's been a dream


Ben Scott and Matt

So this last week and a half we have had some fellow Canadians here filling our little house to overflow, it has been nice though. Surfing adventures, beach lounging, and house parties have been some of the highlights. On one particular occasion Mr. McLeish cut open his foot nice and big and deep one some coral. He swam for about 20 minutes with it bleeding all over the place.. luckily it didn't attract some sharks. Let me tell you about this quaint little burger place we hit up fairly often, Kahuku Grill. It's quite delicious and actually one of my classmates families own the place. We also have enjoyed a few ted's pies, and melona bars which are always a good choice when on the north shore.

Skateboarding

Much progress has been made. I have successfully dropped in, rock and rolled, pivoted, and tail stalled. Good times had by all.





Maunawili's Night Hike.

Super fun, would like to give a solid shout out to Mr. Ryan Weed for taking this event upon himself. He did a really great job. We hiked a mile and a half in the dark with flashlights and glowsticks to the maunawili falls. Once we arrive around 50 of us get in our bathing suits and throw our glowsticks in the water and start jumping in off the cliffs. Road flares were also used ,which were genius, to light up the falls area so that people could scale this super sketchy wall to jump off a 25 ft cliff. Gainers, backflips, and other fun tricks were all thrown down, and thankfully no one got hurt. Trip back was fun, super muddy, and I wasn't super stoked when I rolled my ankle but it's going to be all good.

Andrew Bird

Last night was the Andrew Bird concert in town. It was super fun, good crew and rad music. This guy is an amazing musician. He was all by himself making music. What he did is he would play a melody and then make it loop on a machine while he added more music to loop or played another instrument. He did this with a guitar, violin, and some incredible whistling skills. It was super entertaining, he was funny with his witty banter. Might I also add he may of debut a song that he wasn't supposed too.. haaha radical.
