I just got this email.
Hel...Thank you all so much. I just got this email.<br /><br />Hello Chris,<br /><br />I've heard back from our Tokyo staff, and they've confirmed that all of our staff and interns are safe and accounted for, plus as far as we know there have been no casualties among our Labo tutors or families in the affected areas. It will take a few days to touch bases with everyone. If you would like an update on any particular Labo family in Northern Japan please let me know their names and I will get back to you as soon as we've accounted for everyone.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12905362327313044045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705675907060089073.post-52397431497536158832011-03-11T16:53:52.323-05:002011-03-11T16:53:52.323-05:00My prayers for your friends Chris, and to all of J...My prayers for your friends Chris, and to all of Japan as well as Californians, Oregonians and all others affected by this tragedy.Stevenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705675907060089073.post-36376205596888602002011-03-11T14:25:00.277-05:002011-03-11T14:25:00.277-05:00Thank you Kazumi.

You have told me more then the email I just got. <br /><br />Hello Chris,<br /><br />I have not received an update from the Tokyo office yet, but I am assuming that no news is good news. I am doing my best to get in touch with Yusuke, the manager in Tokyo, to make sure that everyone in Labo is OK, but since it's currently 2:00am Saturday morning their time it may be a while before I'm able to connect with him. I will definitely keep you posted. <br /><br /><br />Ariel S. <br />Exchange Coordinator<br />Labo International Exchange Foundation, SacramentoChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12905362327313044045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705675907060089073.post-5057946147315916152011-03-11T14:12:25.057-05:002011-03-11T14:12:25.057-05:00Liquefaction is happening at the Tokyo Disneyland ...Liquefaction is happening at the Tokyo Disneyland parking lot many school, university and government buildings are open for people who cannot go home in Tokyo.<br />I walked home with a mass of humanity. This is a city of 18million in tight quarters. You can imagine how many people were walking on the streets, considering no one wanted to be inside buildings, and the ins were not running.traTall buildings were swaying like palm trees – their window dressings smacking the windows and lights swaying wildly. <br />There is a building under construction across from mine with cranes on the roof. The cranes were clanking against each other and making an awful sound. It seemed they would fall any minute.<br /><br />Kamisama(god) help us. Thank you all for your prayers. We will need them.Kazumi Satonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705675907060089073.post-87770995394927601652011-03-11T13:06:23.715-05:002011-03-11T13:06:23.715-05:00Our prayers, too, are with the people of Japan.Our prayers, too, are with the people of Japan.Divine Theatrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02553420826262806110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705675907060089073.post-74755122396075757962011-03-11T12:37:05.544-05:002011-03-11T12:37:05.544-05:00Chris, The CP family joins in prayers for Japan.Chris, The CP family joins in prayers for Japan.Christopher - Conservative Perspectivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14102651466203156040noreply@blogger.com
