Yes, we are on Misawa Air Base. 232 miles north of the nuclear reactor. Voluntary evacuation for family members only is going on, but my husband and I will stay put. As of now we are safe here. Still having strong after shocks.

Sleeping at 45F at night is no fun. We still have strong aftershocks and I hope the power will stay on.
Again thanks again for thinking of us!!!
Hugs, Gaby
