Life in Tokyo

Things are fine in Tokyo.

We could buy water at our local shop.

There was a lot of water in the shop.

Bottled Water... in a can


These days, there is not enough electricty.

Once, the elecrtricity in our house went out for one hour.

It was not so bad.

We used candles!



Many shops are using less electricity.

They don`t turn on all of the lights.



 I think this is GREAT!

Usually, they use too many lights!

I like this style!



Also on the trains, they don`t turn on the heater.

This is GREAT!

In Tokyo, they make the trains TOO HOT in winter and TOO COLD in summer.

I feel comfortable on the trains now!

Let`s keep this style FOREVER!!!

2011 Sendai Earthquake and Tsunami Part 2

Now people are worried about food.

They are buying so much food!

People have to wait in line to get into the store!

My wife was lucky. She could enter the store!

Many people could not enter the store!



In many shops, there is no food!


All of the water is gone!

There is no more bread!
There are no sandwiches!
This is very scary!



At night, everyone stays at home.

I took these photos at 8pm.
Usually this place is very busy!
But these days, there are few people!

The TV news said that there might be another big earthquake soon.

I feel afraid.

I am hoping for the best!

2011 Sendai Earthquake and Tsunami

Yesterday there was a big earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

I live in Tokyo so I could feel the earthquake.

It was so strong!

My wife and I are both OK.

My wife was at home in Fuchu

She said the room was shaking so much.

Even now, the room is still shaking a little.

We can see our plant is moving.



I was in Meidaimae train station

Many people were afraid.

They tried to hold on to anything.


When the earthquake stopped I called my wife.

Many people were using the telephones.



I talked to my wife and I was very happy that she was OK.



After that, I waited at the station.

Many people were waiting.

In the end I walked home.

I walked for 3 and a half hours!

I was tired when I got home but I was very happy to see my wife again.

We were very lucky!

Stupid man with bad friends

His friends are cheating him!

Cell phones are dangerous!

These people can make popcorn with their cell phones!



I think those cell phones are dangerous!

Maybe Japanese cell phones are safe.
Watch this!


No!

Japanese cell phones are also dangerous.

I love my iphone.


I hope my iphone is not dangerous.

Watch this!


Oh No!

My iPhone is SO dangerous!

I must not use it near popcorn!

Actually, it is a trick.

Look at the man`s foot at 0:35.

This video is not real!
