ちゃそIt was yesterday and the new sake from Tedorigawa. However, I could only drink about one sip.
On the 1st, I went to my relative's house in Noto to attend the annual banquet. As soon as the party started, there was a big earthquake.
Just when I thought it had subsided, there was an even more violent earthquake. It was as if a drum was being pounded in front of us, and the vertical shaking seemed to be coming from below. The children took shelter under desks, protected by their mothers, and I saw a large cupboard behind my 2-year-old nephew and my brother-in-law, who was the smallest, shaking violently. I was so determined to hold it down that I managed to hold it in place. After that, earthquakes occurred frequently, and I stood by, telling myself that if I let up, I would lose my life.
After a while, I checked the damage and found that the warehouse had collapsed and that dishes and wardrobes had been damaged. I also felt a pain in my shoulder and wrist, but it was nothing serious.
I am still at a relative's house to help out, but fortunately the infrastructure in my area is still alive and food seems to be okay.
I think I will go home when things settle down. Please understand that I will not appear in Sakegawa for a while as I receive phone calls and lines frequently.
