Goods for disasters

2019-08-01 | disaster


three sets

 


18 bottles

 


1set

 

   I bought goods for disasters yesterday.

(A backpack and the goods were sent a few days before.)

We experienced flood last year and the weather these days is abnormal.

Besides we are worrying about a big earthquake. 

So my son told me to prepare for these disasters and he checked goods to order these goods using the internet.

These foods and water seem to be preserved 4 or 5 years.

There are some other necessities too.

It cost about 30,000 yen.

Completion of temporary housing

2018-09-29 | disaster

 

 

 

 

    Keys were handed to the people who will live in the completed temporary housing yesterday and they began to move there.

They can live in the house for 2 years.

Some will go out of it when they rebuild or reform their houses.

 

I happened to see a woman who was taking a walk in the evening.

She lost her way and asked me the way to the temporary house.

She was a victim of the disaster and she lost her house and three cars.

This is the beginning of the reconstruction of our town.

Under construction

2018-08-30 | disaster

 

 

 

About 900 people are still in a shelter.

And about 200 temporary houses or more will be built. 

People who can't get these houses will live in apartments and so on. 

5 houses where 20 families can live are being built at the north of the Okada primary school now.

It is said they will be completed by the end of September. 

Some finished cleaning the houses near my house and are rebuilding.

In the evening, I see a fewer lights in the neighborhood, and is very silent.

  Only the sound of the insects is very loud.

Explosion at an aluminum factory

2018-08-22 | disaster

  Blue seats are put on the roof of each house in an aluminum factory vicinity.

 

 Aluminum factory

 

 

Friday, July 6.

 We heard a very very big sound around 11:30 on July 6.

What happened ?

It  was an explosion at an aluminum factory about 2 kilometers away.

The sound was like an earthquake, thunder, or the tone of the jet.

It was raining heavily and the special heavy rain warning had been announced.

Aluminum factory was flooded by the heavy rain and the water caused chemical reaction.

Glass on the hallway of my house was also broken by a blast.

 This was the beginning of the catastrophe.

Recovery from a breakdown of the internet

2018-08-21 | disaster

July 7  around 18:30

 

A breakdown of the internet occurred by the Western Japan torrential downpour on July 7.

After about a month and a half, au light managed to recover from the breakdown today. 

The picture above was taken from my house.

If the surface of the water had elevated about 10 centimeters or so, my house would have been flooded.
