You may not know exactly the areas which were swept out by tsunami.
Here is the map.

The blue spot is the town where we went.
Let's take a closer look.

We went there along the road which is marked with a blue line.
The photos on the last article were taken in the river side.
Unbelievably, the tsunami went up along the river and swept out buildings in inland.
Who thought that the tsunami would come to inland???
The riverside areas are flat so they couldn't escape to the higher place.
On the other hand, the area where we went have some higher ground and the evacuation center
is located on a hill.
As you can see on the second map, Oshika peninsula has ria coasts.
There are hundreds of small villages. Thus, not many people come to there
to support. There are still so many shelters which is desperate for aids...
