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.

Potato time

Today I harvested potatoes with T-san, his wife, his son and C-san.


We seperated those over 60 grams from those under by estimation and put those in large sacks.

The small and severely damaged potatoes are to be made into starch, and the others are apparently to be used in foods.

We boiled a few of them in our lunch break and ate them with butter and salt. They were delicious.
