Anything over that we would come in and watch the locals tear shit up on their surf boards. I hate Hawaii except for its beaches and surf. I remember the summer of 97 while I was there the north shore got pounded with 40' swells. No one was out except the pros who traveled just for it. Jetski tow ins and all. Balls of steel!!
People that think Hawaii is such a wonderful place haven't stayed there long enough.
I always thought it funny that aloha means hello and goodbye. Like, "hello, leave your money, OK, goodbye", all in one greeding.
