@ Ocean

I went to the ocean since the earthquake.

The ocean for the first time three weeks.

I did not surf for three weeks is the first time in some years.

Today, we went to my home point for the beach cleaning.

We couldn't go until today,

because we couldn't get gas.

Many local and visitor surfers were coming,

and did beach cleaning.

I thought good thing.

because nobody didn't inform to them to do beach cleaning. They were coming by them own.

I was very glad!!

But we were shocked watching the real things.....

We had not ever watched these things by ourselves,

I had ever heard it by blogs like SNS.

Broke into 2 homes in the TSUNAMI.

It's the fence post.

All of fence was broken over a few hundred meters.

Tetrapods were moved by Tsunami.

Here is the Yasutaro point.

This shop was broken the first floor.

Many debris were blocking surfers.

It's a big deal!!

The big rock was beside the pole.

It moved......

All of house along the ocean

were broken, and were disappeared.

So many volunteers are coming every day.

I heard that over 1.000 volunteers are coming every day.

Almost they lives near this city.

If you live in out of Chiba and near town,

they can't accept any more volunteer.

They said that if you want to help us,

please come and use money for shopping,

dining, any more in this area.

I think many residents would start to recover gradualy.

The ocean is the same as usual.

We decided that we would restart surfing next weekend.

And we wanna use money for their reconstruction

by shopping and having dinner.

If you are surfer, you can do one thing.

One of local pro surfer at this point

is doing the beach cleaning every moring.

Please help him before you surf....

@ TOKYO

After the severe earthquake in Tokyo

about bending the tip of Tokyo Tower

has several problems.

One is the blackout.
This is Akihabara where called The Electric Town.

Almost street lights were turned off like midnight. This is my town.

Darkness town....
It's so scary, and dangerous....

But we have to cooperate
because ｔhe nuclear power plant of Fukushima
stopped sending thier power.

If we usually use this power,
it will be stopped all of Tokyo.

Now, we're having planned blackouts to save power
to divide into 5 areas.
It will be continued to the end of April.

The other is Gasoline.
If you wanna buy gasoline,
you have to have a long line.

I got it for an hour.....


and too expensive!!
It costs 156yen per 1 liter!!!

Because gasoline is unobtainable,
no cars on the road.

Now, it has already been resolved.

You can get it easily at Tokyo.

The last thing is 'buying up the goods.'

It was hard for me to buy rice and breads...
I don't know why everybody bought up these foods.....

Now, we can get all.....





The affected areas have many people working hard.

What can we do from Tokyo ?

Spring has come....

The first monday after the 9.0 earthquake

Monday,

the first business day after the earthquake,

I tried to go to my office.

But I couldn't go,

because the trains and stations were in Panic.
Almost train couldn't run in this morning,
because of the impact of the earthquake and lack of electricity.

long line of people....

I tried to go my office after noon again.


When I went shopping,
I surprized at the empty counter...
All of water was sold out!!!
The other foods was almost sold out, too....

Our area was not the disaster area.
So, we are NOT VICTIMS!

I can't understand why they had to buy up them...

The TV has shed a tragic photos and videos every day.

Many shocking photos were there.

It's Fukushima.
How size tsunami were coming?????

This is the Photos of Iioka.

Iioka local took photos.

Most TV is not broadcasting area.

Iioka is our favorite point

where we practiced surfing in bigginer.

Crash the entrance of Iioka point...

This is the rest room that

we always use at Yasukan Pt.

Surf shop at Iioka....

This is the point 'Iioka'
Tetrapods were moved by Tsunami...

Though TV showed only Fukushima and Miyagi's disaster.

Chiba and Ibaragi hitted tsunami hard, too.

And so bad condition....

Many house near ocean were crashed...
I want to know everyone these things.

You wanna know, Check it up.

Tsunami of Iioka.

People are working hard for their life.....

Please do them best!!

11th march 2011, 14:46

M8.8 earthquakes hitted North Japan.

At that time,

The clock of my house stopped and

was down on the floor.

My house was not bad condition.

Nothing was broken but
all of door was opening.
I got the earthquake at the bay area in Tokyo.
I did the most scary experience.
I stayed in the high building at that time.
It shook terribly.
I couldn't stand up.
And when I watched the next high building,
it was shaking from side to side greatly...


I though it would collapse....
and our building would collapse, too...

I felt sooooo long time....

I really thought to die.....

Out side was little bit PANIC.

Many people, cars, and fires.

Almost email, handy phone can't use....

We don't have how to get contact.

At that time,

Ena was at the bay area in Chiba.
She looked surprizing view.

It's not rain.
This was the water erupted from underground.

Many cars filled in the mud like below.

All of train was stopped, and couldn't use.

Taxies couldn't get, and bus was very crowded.

All of highway couldn't use.

So, it was very traffic jam.

Therefore,

all of people (including me) decided that

they gonna go back to home by walk.

Ena could go back to home easily

because she was near home.
But I couldn't.

My office is Shinagawa,Tokyo.

And my home is Funabashi, Chiba.
It has 25KM distance.

It will spent 6 hours by walk.

Many people couldn't give up to catch the train.
But JR(train's company) announced

they never open today...

I started to go home.
Along the way,
though I wanna eat something,
almost food was sold out at the convenience store.
I had to walk without eating....

But I was lucky boy.
The subway go to near my house was restarted!!

It was terrible crowded,
but I could go back to homu about 3 hours.


I was surprised at watching TV!!
Terrible disaster has come north Japan.
Massive earthquakes and Tsunamis hits there.
Tsunami damage is particularly awful.
Oncoming tsunami stikes the coast in Natori city, Miyagi.

This is the Naka river at Ibaragi.

Tsunami is running up to the upper river like the Pololocca.

Tsunami swirls.
This is near the Ooarai point at Ibaragi.

This is the Sendai Air port surrounded by waters.

Light plane and cars with debris.

It looks like toys...

Giant fireballs rise from a burning oil refinery

in Ichihara, Chiba.

This is Iwaki city, Fukushima were on fire.

More than one thousand people have died....

Earthquakes still have hit now....

I'm very worry about them live in north Japan.

So scary....

Please pray for Japan....
