Day with Elna Koi and Floor's Koi Shop - Isa Koi Farm
Posted 23 Feb 2010 - 20:09 by Mark Gardner
At 12.30 we visited Isa's tosai house where yesterday Mitsunori had completed the sembetsu of tosai in one of the ponds and had agreed to allow Dirk and Floor to hand select from the remaining Koi.
The original deal had been to pick 10, in the end Mitsunori agreed to allow them to pick 30 between them.
Following lunch at Gusto - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/143 - we headed to Nogami, primarily to see the tosai available for hand selection. As with Dainichi earlier in the day - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/711 - having seen them arrangement has been made to return later in the week to hand select.
Also at Nogami was the 90bu Kokugyo winner from the All Japan Show and 2008 Niigata Nogyosai winner.
