Day 42
Niigata -> NagaokaDistance:109km
Stopped briefly in Niigata city to pick up a new map, as we officially pass out of northern and into central japan. Then turned inland and left the sea, which we won't see again for a number of weeks, and headed up Niigata's wide delta, farmers out harvesting what they say is the finest rice in Japan. Tonight we caught up with a guy that Nate knows here in Nagaoka city - Scott - who let us crash on his floor and took us out for a night on the town with his buddies - an all-you-can-drink pub, a punk bar, and a great late night feast of stodgy ramen and dumplings.
