EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN

For anyone worried about the safety of Abiko, bless you all. Abiko was hit by some pretty severe aftershocks around 2.45pm Friday from a big quake (7.9m, 8.8? Dunno. You probably have access to better intel than Our Man).

No buildings collapsed, no fires, no casualties here. But still getting aftershocks. As soon as my iphone recharges, will get out and take pics, though there isn't much to see, just feel. The ground shaking beneath your feet is very, very unnerving. Must be for me to use "very" twice.

Our Woman, Our Mother in Law and Our two little monkeys are safe though.

Still feeling aftershocks. It will be a bad night tonight for sleep.

I am just a random American blogger searching Japanese blogs for information. May God bless all of you and keep you safe.

Scary. Glad to hear our man and co are safe. Note to self, after hearing news of quake in 'Northern Japan' on radio, must improve knowledge of Japanese geography.
Take care, Mel (and Jane if she were here)
