We spent last night in Matsue, and went out for a very pleasant meal with Iitsuka-san. We then went to the farm this morning to look at Nisai, Sansai and Yonsai looking for 'money no object' kind of Koi. After searching through everything available, the party with me concluded that the five fish in THIS VIDEO (that we have already bought) were in fact the very best of what Matsue had to offer. I particularly enjoyed seeing these Koi again, as now that they have settled, their skin and colour condition is already much better than when I first bought the Koi when harvested. The video gives you a much better insight into the body types and qualities that these Koi posses, than the Kois original videos in our 'Fish' sales pages.

This afternoon, we went to Momotaro to peruse the Koi that are to be auctioned on the 17th.

Tomorrow and Tuesday will be a tad more relaxed than the last week, as we now have four breeders to visit in the next two days, all within relatively close proximity to each other. Phew!...
