I heard from him that the other guys were stuck on the train for 22 hours due to earthquakes? I hope they were able to go home.
The radiation level in Tokyo rose to 0.809 micro sievert. 20 times higher than the usual. But the current level is now down to 0.151 micro sievert in Shinjuku, Tokyo. 5 times higher than the usual level. I cannot get pregnant now
thaks for the message
jonathonIT - and as yes, as
tokioblue mentions we managed to catch up on Monday night for a, ummm, 'few' drinks (the Japanese counting system must be waaay different to the rest of us
) We had a great time drinking, eating and singing karaoke late into the night. (I oficially became an organ donor - handing my chicken heart, lung and intestine yakitori sticks to tokioblue).
Flights out were all fully booked/oversold. A couple of people turned up without tickets. Others had managed to secure flights and were paying for their tickets on check-in. Huge queues, long waits, but very orderly.
