After FIVE hours walking nonstop, one train trip, and 15 minutes biking from our station, my husband is finally home! Red eyes, blisters on the heels, freezing ears and all, but we’re together at last! I feel like I’m going to cry now T_T
He said that there were a lot of people walking home with him, some were even running. Here’s a few pictures that he took before his iPhone battery died. These are people stranded in Shinjuku station, they were watching news from the big television. My husband’s office was trashed and there were cracks on the wall. We are still experiencing aftershocks until now.
Be with your loved ones and stay safe, everyone!
glad to know your family is safe. I’m praying for Japan
I watched this on tv. Saw many people were walking home. some even had to walked 8 hours.
When I read your post I felt like crying too. By watching it, it’s scary enough. I couldn’t sleep. Glad that all of you are safe. My prayers for all the people in Japan.
