Typhoon and Earthquake... all in one 3 day weekend.

So we got the double whammy for the long weekend just gone. Saturday and Sunday was typhoon warning, it cleaned up Okinawa, but was a non event here in Tokyo, well we got some rain but that was about it. Then at just after 10am on Monday we had an earthquake. It was only about 3 on the Richter scale here in Tokyo, but it was over 6 in Niigata.

It seems that the nuclear power plant over there didn't fare quite as well as one would hope...

Even though it was only small here in Tokyo our building got up quite a rock and roll, up here on the 36th floor we were swaying around for a good minute!
