Pe'ahi (a.k.a Jaws) here on Maui's north shore is one of the largest surf breaks in the world- and it only swells a few times a year. After living here a decade, I finally got to go out with some friends to see it breaking!
If the above wave does not look enormous, use the surfer in the image to give you perspective.
Less than a week and I'll be flying over that ocean... there is a lot on my mind, a lot in my heart ... but for this afternoon, I simply got to watch the waves crash. And it felt really, really good.
