Welcome

For those reading who don't know me, or have forgotten my name, I am Neil Gordon and I intend to keep this blog up to date with my travel activities in Japan - taking place from mid July 2010 till some time in January 2011.
I'm English and am interested in the Japanese culture and language, as well as computers and technology.
The blog name neiltanken is simply my name + 探検 (tanken) - which means expedition.

Henro Day 24

Today I met YH-san, a university teacher. (I’ve met him before, but this is the first mention on the blog)

We walk at about the same pace, so we walked together all day.

He knows a lot about religious studies and anthropology and is very interesting to talk to.

I found a shop where you can LEST while drinking coffee. I guess they meant rest… (lol)

The person in the right photo is YH-san.

We took a short break at Kaminagatani assembly hall.

There was a place keeping a goat (why!?) so we said hi to it.

After finishing the Shinnen henro path, we walked another ~8KM henro path which ran beside a road.

Tsurunoya Ryokan. I was the only one staying, but the host was friendly, the room was large and the food was good. The only small minus was the TV was an old tube one with a bad picture.
