3月24日(sangatsu nijyuyokka): March 24

There were some earthquakes today.
We were informed that they found radiation in spinach cultivated in Ibaraki (茨城) and in water in Tokyo. Their level is minor but the government recommended for babies not to drink water from the tap and they decided to provide mineral water pet bottles.
I heard there were no water pet bottles at the convenience stores.
Three workers were exposed to radiation today when they tried to retrieve the nuclear plants.
The devastating situation of the Tohoku (東北) area are often shown on TV. But I was surprised to hear from my friend that even in Urayasu, Chiba (千葉県浦安市:chiba ken urayasu shi), where is the city of Tokyo Disneyland, there are liquefaction and there are many manholes projecting or cars and bicycles sticking into the earth which look like objet d'art.
