Nancy, what was the reason for the pics of the koi hanging up? Were those koi for sale?
How HOT was it?

Hello Ryan . . .

Nope, they weren't for sale. They were before/after (tosai to nisei, w/ measurements) pix of a shipment of about 50 koi sent to a dealer in England last year. It was absolutely amazing to see some of those so-so ducklings turn into beautiful 50+ cm swans.

As for the heat, it was mid 90's. I know: For you, a nice Spring day. But for us it was just about unbearable.

Some pix:
.

.Netting up Dainichi koi for sale

.Andy and wife Jamilla Tran -- in charge of the BBQ

.Tosai galore

.Toru Inouye, Ken's Japanese Koi Broker and interpreter for Mano-san

.Toru and Shigeru Mano

.Shigeru

.Toru and Shigeru

.A tosai I liked (but wasn't fast enough to get)

.The Live Judging Exercise koi

.Shigeru after a BIG cheeseburger, ribs and other goodies

.Nancy Morales picking up the the test papers

.Can you rank these four tosai showa in the same order Shigeru did?

Great pics Don, so what did you get?

Does Shigeru really need an interpreter?
