I like saxaphones.  Leila says I have an old-fashioned heart.  I tend to agree.
Merry XMAS Eve.  Enjoy:

Christmas Store Fronts

Storefronts done right are an amazing work of art.  With hundreds, if not thousands, of people walking by
any given shop, it undoubtedly is quite a challenge to constantly create creative and enticing window
displays that can capture the imagination of the passerby.

It's an interesting concept.  A space no more that 10 feet by 10 feet  represents only a small fraction
of a store in space but represents the entire store in imagery.  Anybody ever seen the 80's movie,
"Mannequin"?

023_1.jpg
Mannequin the Movie, 1987.

Here is a creative storefront, designed by design house, Sosolimited, for the HBO Store in New York.
Infrared sensors detect how close passerbys are to the display window, and then turn on fan vents to blow
snow to match their position.  An interactive storefront of Christmas snow.  Watch the video to see how it
works.  Enjoy:

Leaving Honolulu

We're baaaack. Back in Los Angeles after flight delays, emergency landings, meal vouchers, check-in
lines, security checks and the ghost town-like feel of airports at 3 am while trying to flag down a taxi.

It is NICE to be back, safe & sound. Although, I do miss Hawaii (already) and the warmth of its thick humid 
island air. After 14 hours of seeing the insides of airports and airplanes, the only thing on your mind is going 
home, showering, and sleeping for as long as possible.

Well, it was beautiful while it lasted, Hawaii! Until next time.

Aloha.

North Pacific Storms + Giant Wave Trains

020_1.jpg
Tuesday's morning newspaper in Hawaii.

For those in Hawaii, this macker of a swell is producing some fine wrap at the most unexpected spots
around the islands.  For those on the West Coast, these same swell trains will be lighting up the likes of
Rincon and great NW point breaks in a matter of three days.

Enjoy, be safe, and happy surfing.

1. Brice Surfboards. Definitely check him out!
2. Zippys mini spaghetti w/ (substitute) fries
3. Blue skies and the use of only boardshorts (vs. wetsuits) in December.
4. The most beautiful skies and pastel sunsets.

Hawaii, we love you!

Travels


Good morning to the BAYVI 6A.  We've been on the road quite a bit this past week and things have been
quite hectic.  This week, we haven't had many opportunities to post stories to our daily readers, but we fill
you in all the recent happenings very shortly.

So many recent events and exciting releases to fill you in on!  For now, just wanted to put up a quick post.
Here's a photo of our recent travels:  Back to Hawaii.

Need to shut this computer off and hurry and catch a plane.  Will update again soon.

Everybody have a great and safe thanksgiving.  From all of us at the BAYVI Family.

Spent the day down on the East side of Oahu. You can see the sandbar in the first photo, if you look close
enough. It was somewhat of a gloomy day today, but still nice and relaxing.
