Another Fall Nishikigoi shipment...

Well, Yesterday another fall shipment from Niigata came in. These are some of the koi I have been waiting for the last month. Kevin Pham of Genki koi always gives me a ring and of course! I always enjoy donating my time for this fun event.

I did a small picture documentary to the airport to ripping open boxes to kinda let people see what many of our dealers go through during shipment day. I have to say I love shipment day and I love just being there to help out. So off to SFO airport we go!

Please enjoy

First few pics is of dropping off a shipment then off to the Goodies. We had som waiting time until the lift operators could get to our boxes. SO we patiently waited... Alas, the lift comes and as you will see a few boxes were inspected. No torn boxes or wet boxes always a relief since since they are in box for abou 24 hours. I gotta add that fall shipments are good cause water is cooler.

Ok lucky I am writing this at night as most of you would have gotten the rope around my neck by now for some eye candy.

Enjoy!

Thanx for the pics! It's always great to unload new candy. Just did a shipment at Nippon Koi Garden in Belgium last week. Fantastic.
