On my Sunday afternoon, Japan's Monday morning
there was an earthquake, 6.1 in Osaka, right where my family lives.
Son was on a parked train and because of the suspension it was shaking very hard.
Yuko and Mia were home, a day off of her school, thank goodness.

Everyone is fine, happy to say.
There are some fires, broken gas and water pipes.

Hi, Gayle!
ReplyDeleteHow scary that your family members were at the epicenter of a quake! I am relieved to know they are AOK. I admire the octopus and nicely designed mugs. Nice to see Winston exercising (and sharpening) his mandibles in case lizzerds attack.
Have a wonderful week, dear friend Gayle!
hahahahahahaha... lizzerds attack !
ReplyDeleteSo pleased your family are alright - such a worry when they are far away.
ReplyDeleteThe house they live in backs up to a green hill and that is a worry.
DeleteGood that your family is safe.
ReplyDeleteSo far they are fine.
DeleteThank you,
I heard about the earthquake this morning on the radio. It must be scary to be on the train when such large earthquake happens. Glad your family is OK.
ReplyDeleteTako is so cute wearing the hat. And what adorable photos of Winston with his favorite stick :-)
I was thinking of you also.
DeleteGood grief! Thank goodness your family is ok with no major or life threatening damage done! We actually had a wee 2.4 earthquake rumble through here about two weeks ago. (A rare event for NH) Apparently, I slept through it.
ReplyDeleteI wish my teeth were as shiny and white as that gud dug! X
I lived in California (on an old fault) that would shake. We lived through so many quakes
Deletethat they were nothing special. I could tell by the weather and the ants when a quake would happen.
But it only takes a big one that is/will come soon I think. The plates are moving and so many volcanoes erupting. Not good signs.
Glad your family is ok. Every time something happens in Japan I worry. Our daughter says she felt nothing. Love the octopus.
ReplyDeleteI was going to check on you and your daughter but I figured you would hear from her and I know she is not near Osaka. Happy to know she and you are fine.
DeleteGlad your family is safe, Gayle. Winston is giving that stick what for!
ReplyDeleteHe is a chewer !
DeleteGlad your family is OK! Having lived through many a quake in L.A. it's never easy to hear about them anywhere! xox
ReplyDeleteWe got so they didn't even bother us but we lived in Laguna Beach and Palm Desert so no tall buildings.
DeleteGlad your family is okay.
ReplyDeleteWe have lived through so much bad weather that nothing phases us.
DeleteHappy to hear that all are safe now:)
