2011 Tōhoku Earthquake and Tsunami (Japan)

A big earthquake followed with a deadly Tsunami has just rocked Japan, especially at Sendai, Honshu Island on March 11th 2011. The biggest earthquake, 8.9 magnitude, to hit Japan in 140 years struck Friday, triggering a 10-metre tsunami that pounded the country's east coast and prompted advisories along Canada's West Coast.

Today, as I was going through my usual reads online, I found this blog that I must share with everyone ! It's practically a day by day account of what it's like to be there in Sendai and have to live through this horrendous ordeal. It's a personal story: the authors of this blog are truly living it........ I hope you will find it as fascinating and enlightening as I did. Go to blog Sendai-Honolulu Journal homepage. Here's a bit of background information on this blog:

" Scott and Yasue Schumaker moved from Japan to Hawaii in 1995. They and their son Ian, 14, live in Kapolei. In mid-January, Yasue unexpectedly returned to her childhood home in Sendai, Japan to care for her ailing mother. She was in Sendai when the devastating 9.0 earthquake struck. In this blog, Scott will share how all 3 family members are coping with the separation amid the chaos and misery of post-quake life in northern Japan. All times in this blog are HST. "
