Tsunami alert

Sending all my thoughts to those affected by the earthquake in Miyagi.

Tsunami alerts were issued for New Zealand, the Philippines, Hawaii, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia due to this earthquake. So please be careful if you are living in one of these locations.

When you evacuate, do not forget to have your cash, bank cards and credit cards. You should keep them in the pocket and carry them with you wherever you go.

You should also carry a radio.

And there are few more things you should bring with you.

1. Plastic bags: bigger is better. You can keep water in it from the water wagon
2. Plastic wrap: you can save water by laying it on the plate when having food. can be used as a substitute for bandage.
3. Cushion: when you run outside, you can protect your head with this. By using it as a pillow, you can save your energy.
4. Sneakers with thick sole: you can prevent your feet from getting hurt from broken glasses scattered on the street. Also it’s safer when you have to walk in the water.

Carrying all of them might be tough, but it would help you when you have even one of them.

The priority is, in order, plastic bags, plastic wrap, and a cushion.

When you go outside, be careful about your head and feet. It’s crucial not getting injured while evacuating.

• Use a bicycle rather than a car. You could get stuck in a traffic jam.
• If you abandon your car on the way of evacuation, leave the car key inside so that when ambulance needs to move your car, it makes rescuers easy to do it.
• If there’s somewhere high nearby your place, run for that place. Even if the place is only 10m higher, it’s enough to save your life.
• The second and the third waves of tsunami are stronger than the first one as the second/third waves absorb the power of the first one. So do not relax even after the first wave's gone.
• Do not make a call if it’s not to confirm someone’s safety because it hinders others' call to police and ambulance.
• The place you should evacuate to should be the firm building made of reinforced concrete.
• Lastly, don’t hesitate to throw away your belongings when you’re facing a danger. The safety of your life is the most priority!!!
