Fanning heads over to a Mauli Ola Foundation function where he has a date with young Sadie. On this same day last year he surfed with her and she asked him if he'd come back and have a paddle with her again -- so that's just what he did. "We caught 10 waves together and had a blast," says Fanning. "Thank you, Sadie, for making me smile, you special little girl." Photo: Jake Marot
