Our Japanese friends here in Singapore booked the restaurant. Unfortunately, they could not make it since their daughter caught a cold. So we cancelled.

Afternoon tea at Fullerton Bay

When I was swimming in the pool at 5F of Mandarin Oriental, my wife said to me that she will meet her friend to have an afternoon tea. I joined it to take care of our daughter, while my wife enjoyed the talk to her old friend back in her university. It was SGD 50 per person. The atmosphere was sophisticated and luxurious. Our daughter played with other children there; children quickly get along with each other, unlike adults.

Marina Bay sands - sky park

This is my second time while it's the first time for my family.

Singapore: temporary relocation under the company's sponsorship

Under the company's official relocation instruction, I and my family left Tokyo last night(technically midnight, today, on March 22) and now stay in Singapore to avoid radiations, rolling blackouts, and limited commuter trains for electricity conservation. Temporary return date is April 1 at this point in time; until then, I'm working in Singapore and staying at Mandarin Oriental Singapore.

Ishigaki jima(island), Okinawa, Japan

Now we are back from Ishigaki. I and our family will head for Nagoya since my company supports the official relocation to there to avoid the turmoil due to the earthquake, tsunami, and rolling blackouts in Kanto area.

Ishigaki jima(island), Okinawa, Japan

I, my family, my brother-in-law's family, and mother-in-law come to Ishigaki jima(island), Okinawa, Japan. Since we have a small child, we just decided to leave Kamakura and Tokyo yesterday since the Fukushima nuke plant #1 is in an unpredictable situation.

My wife's childhood friend works in a hotel here and kept rooms in her hotel.

Rolling blackouts have been taken place in Kanto area excluding central Tokyo. The relatively small earthquakes have been breaking out in Kanto area sporadically, but there seems to be almost no risk of tsunami.

Fortunately, I am able to work online. I wish I could contribute to help the disaster victims directly, however, our decisions were made with the safety of the children the highest priority.
