Day 4
Surfed at a spot called "Hasaki".  The waves were ssoooo fun!
Perfect for longboarding from beginner to expect level.
The best part nobody was out, and everyone had their own peck.

While surfing there was a Suzuki Jimny cruising on the beach.
I am so crazy about these mini 4WD's.  This jimny was just 
having a good time.  The owner must have spent some $$
on parts....pretty cool!!!!
