On my recent visit to Otawara in Tochigi Prefecture, I noticed a fair amount of earthquake damage from the March 11 disaster, especially to the local cemeteries. I was a bit surprised as I would have thought this type of damage would have been repaired by now but I guess many of the residents just have not had a chance to repair the cemeteries yet. Of course this damage pales in comparison to the damage closer to the quake zone along the coast.
Sorry to still see all the damage and guess it will take time to get everything back to the way it was pre March 11.

I wonder if it ever got fixed.
DeleteYep, it's sad to see cemetery in a shambles.
ReplyDeletePretty sad stuff. I wonder how the families will feel when they see this.
ReplyDeleteThat's what made me wonder. It's been 6 months so I was surprised the families had not seen it. It is a small neighborhood temple but I wonder if the temple can't inform them.
ReplyDeleteWow, shoot yeah... It's a little bit unsettling to see tombstones upturned like that.
ReplyDeleteYes, very sad to see.
