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 5

3435
Tokushima City, 16th temple - Kannonji

36
Tokushima City, 17th temple - Idoji

37
Today's inn - Ootsuru Ryokan

It rained all day today.
I wore a 'poncho' style raincoat, but it couldn't coverf my legs - allowing rainwater to pass from my trousers to my socks and collect in my shoes.
It was a rather unpleasant experience.
The lady running the inn ran me a bath then afterwords put my clothes in the wash and dried my shoes using newspaper and a electric fan.
She was a real saviour.
