I forgot to upload this picture from 16th August 2007, when a massive earthquake hit Peru. I heard that it was such a huge quake and switched the TV on, but it was a "sport and entertainment news" which showed "David Beckham on the LA Galaxy". Still they have a tsunami warning on the right-hand corner of the screen. So this surreal picture is here... Becks and a map of Japan with yellow tsunami warning lines.
It's been one month since the earthquake in Niigata, which damaged the big nuclear power plant. This ex-house is left as it were.
Still now, 600 people are displaced -- they are now living in temporary prefab compounds -- after their houses were destroyed or damaged. On the day it was sweltering in Niigata (32.2 degrees celcius) as well as many parts of Japan. They now have water and electricity, but they still don't have utility gas.
On the same day, there was a huge earthquake in Peru -- on the other side of the earth. I've seen many horrifying pictures on TV. I feel for all the people who are affected. Stay safe.
