This is a picture I took today while we were stopped at a red light... If you look at the picture closely, the sign says "Tsunami Attention". It's almost like salt in a wound to see a sign like that, particularly in a pile of debris like this one.
We had a good day today, but honestly I'm too tired to write about it right now. Tomorrow we'll go to church, then sometime in the afternoon we're meeting up with a man from our church in Yamaguchi who works in this area. It will be exciting to see a familiar face, but I'm sure he has a lot of painful stories to share. (He was actually in Tokyo when the earthquake hit, but the company he works for is in the heart of where we were today and he's been involved in the clean up process)
Good night...

It must be hard to see all of that. The green of Canada will seem more vivid to you after all of this. Praying for your strength daily.

It is... it doesn't really get any easier... it still blows my mind every time we drive through an effected area.
You're right about Canada being vivid. I'm sure it will be strange. Actually, where our base camp is, we're an hour away from the coast and to get to the coast, we drive through some beautiful green mountains... that in itself is quite a contrast. It's always weird for me to come back home and have everything "normal" here...
