Me in "Uchikake"!

"Uchikake" is a Japanese dress, and today at the temple I got to try one on!

My mum made a video of the process, on the video you can see a nice Japanese woman helping me!

Here is the video;

I wasn't the only one trying on new clothes, look at Daan in "Samurai" armor!

It was awesome!

Here are some other fun pictures from the temple:

We tried "Kaligrafi"- we wrote our names in old Japanese!

Daan and Joris having a "Umberella fight" infront of the temple. (I'm trying to stop them)

A beatiful "Sakura" flower.

A pair marrying! The bride wore wonderful clothes!

-So, thats everything for today!

I hope you enjoy :)

PICTURES ;D

Yeah..

The pics are finally here, we were to tired to do it yesterday, so sorry about that.

Directly after this, I'm going to show pictures from a temple we went to today.

But first, here are the pictures from the island we went to 2 days ago.

My legs hurt ;(

My legs are terrible now, I can't use them at all.

We've been walking on a mountain all day long, and I tell you... it is NOT that easy.

But it was real fun, doh!

I'll show you the pic's tomorrow, as fast as I can, they are wonderful!

PS. On the island we went to (where the mountain was) there were thousands of wild deer's just walking around on the streets and in the shops, azum ;D

I have something to share with you!

..Something really important!

Japan Quake Map

www.japanquakemap.com

Go to the link and don't touch any buttons, it starts by itself.

It is a Quake map, it shows all the quakes that have been.

It start on Friday 00:00. (midnight)

I want you to watch carefully until Friday 16:00. Now, you should've seen the humangous quake at 14:46 I think.

THAT was the earthquake everybody is talking about ;D

And I was in school when it happenend!

Photos

The photos from the earthquake are finally here.

-Enjoy!

The subway is shut down.

Buisness men/women waiting for signal to go in again after earthquake.

The traffic is jammed.

Water is leaking out from bursted water pipes.

More buisness men waiting for signal to go in.

_______________________________________________________________

So, now I'll show you photos from the damage in our apartement, shops and so on.

Windows on this house are broken and fell down on the street.

Tokyo Tower has a TV-antenna. It is bent from the earthquake.

All the books fell down from the shelves.

We have a little crack infront of our door.

_______________________________________________________

But there is another problem, there is less on food/drinks because the food/drink trucks are having a hard time delivering supplies to the shops.

On the following photos you can see empty shelves.

Many shops were also closed.

So- that were all the photos I had now.

I don't know where the movie is from when it happenend, but I'll find it and show it to you someday!

Fast and Furios,

Lisa

Daan did it infront of Pre-K to 5th Grade, and I did it to 5th Grade and a couple of parents.
