We've been back in Japan for about a week, but we're seriously considering getting out of here. We are totally heartbroken since we love everything about this place: people, Olga's sweet job, our new fantastic apartment (which we furnished from zero a month before the earthquake), nurseries, schools, teachers, food food food (which, of course, is ruined now) and Ben's beautiful piano shop (soon expecting pianos). The air is fine, water okay, but the veggies (and SEAFOOD) cannot be trusted and there's radiation in the soil/grass, so the children cannot go to the playground and the park. We're now buying food from western and southern Japan and abroad, but it's hard to live like this for a long time (eg. without eating out) and Olga's tired of always worrying about safety and everything the kids touch and eat.
Nothing's definite yet, Olcika's talking to her boss tomorrow, but we will most likely be looming.
