Weekend is upon us...

( photo taken from my last Tokyo trip ) 
Hello everyone...
I'm sure you've heard about the devastating earthquake & tsunami which 
hit Japan yesterday. As some of you know, I have friends & colleagues in that country.
 Hoping that they are all doing fine... I have not heard anything back from them so far.
Our thoughts & prayers go out to all the people affected by this disaster.
.
' Have a safe Weekend! ' 
~XOXO*

Soon after I got word of this disaster I thought about you, Lenore. I hope as you do that all of your Japanese colleagues made it through alright. Is it just my imagination or is seismic activity on the rise around the globe? Have a safe and happy weekend, dear friend Lenore!

One of my best friends from high school lives in Japan. I've been worried about her and her family all day.

Après que la terre ait tremblé, nous sommes là à trembler pour l'ensemble de la population qui a été touchée par cette catastrophe...
Ce soir j'allumerai une petite bougie et j'aurai une pensée particulière pour tous...
Bisous et bon weekend à vous en espérant que très vitre vous soyez rassurée.

That is so terrible! I'm praying for your friends. From what I heard the cell phones were down all night and this morning in Japan so hopefully that's why you haven't heard yet.

Take care.

It's absolutely terrifying. The footage of the tsunamis is something I won't soon forget, especially since it could happen in California too!

Thank God the Japanese have such an advanced earthquake preparedness system, or things could have been a lot worse.

Mistress Maddie said...

It is just a terrible, terrible thing Lenore! I hope you get word form your loved ones from there. I think at times we take Mother Nature for granted. Kisses to you.

Oh that is horrible! What happened is just too sad for words and to have friends or relatives in the area must be really frightening!
