まず、被災者の方および関係者の皆様には心からのお見舞いを申し上げます。
また、できるだけ早い復興をお祈りしています。
東北関東大震災が起きた。大変な大惨事になった。
中心地は日本の東北地方。
私の住む関東地方はすこしばかり離れており、大きな被害から免れた。
災害の概要はニュースなどで既報。
しかし、一般市民がどんな影響を受けたかはあまり知られていない。
私がレポートみようと思い作成した。
私と私の家族の実態験を通じて震災の状況や教訓をお伝えしたいと思います。
Tohoku-Kanto earthquake happened. It was devastating.
The center of the disaster area was in North of Japan.
Kanto region where I live was a bit away from the north, and luckily I was able to avoid serious damages.
The summary of the disaster is already reported in the news.
However, it is little-known what the impact to the general citizens was.
I decided to report the situation myself.
I would like to tell you the real situation of earthquake disaster and lessons through my and my family's real experience.
I'm wishing for rehabilitation as early as possible.
Great Northeast Kanto Earthquake occurred.
It became a serious catastrophe.
The center is the Tohoku district in Japan.
It is separated from a little Kanto district in which I live, and it escaped serious damage.
The outline of disaster is previously reported by news etc.
However, it is seldom known whether what kind of the general citizen was influenced.
It thought that I would report and created.
I want to tell you about the situation and the lesson of the earthquake disaster through the true experience of my and my family.
Tohoku and Kanto area's big earthquake happened. That was terrible disaster.
Central area was Tohoku area in Japan.
Kanto area where I live is little bit far from there so I did not suffer big damage.
The detail about the disaster and like that are all known by news or other thing.
However, what the general people suffer is not known very much.
I thought I should report it so made this.
I would like to tell the situation and knowledge from the disaster through my family and my actual experience.
私は三島(静岡県)に出張中。
ホテルはいつも空いているのだが、この日ばかりは満杯。
漫画喫茶に宿泊。リクライニング・ソファでつらかった。
外食店で節電営業などあり。
食材の調達ができず閉店するレストランチェーンも。
貪欲そうなパチンコ店も短縮営業。
The hotel always becomes vacant, but is full only on this day.
I stay at the comics coffee shop. It was hard by a reclining sofa.
There is also a store run while saving electricity in a dining-out store.
Also the restaurant chain which supply of foods is closed by the ability not doing. The pachinko parlor which seems to be avaricious is also shortening business.
The hotel usually has vacancies, but this day was fully occupied.
I spend the night at Manga cafe. It was hard to sleep on reclining chair.
Some restaurants were operating under the power saving mode.
There were some restaurants closed due to lack of food delivery.
Even greedy pinball parlors were closed early.
Hotel are usually available but this day, there are no more available room.
I stayed in Manga cafe. That was hard as I had to lie on the reclining sofa.
Some stores like restrant are opened but turn off some electricity.
Some restarant chain store are closed as they could not find food material.
Pachinko, look like greedy but, it is also opened short time than usual.
スタート時は甘く考えていた。だいたい20kmぐらいだけど、5時間もあるけば到着するなあ~と。ジョギングも始めたし…。
やっと錦糸町。予想に比べ、かなり疲れた。寒かったので、そこからくる疲労感もあった。
iPhoneで道順チェックしないと…。
と思うが、手がかじかんでやる気しない。
Finally, Kinshi-cho. I'm quite tired compared with expectation. It was cold, so fatigue was felt very much for it.
I have to check the way in iPhone....
I think so, but a hand is numbed, and a mind to do isn't done.
Finally, I was in Nishiki-cho. I was far more exhausted than I expected. Part of the exhaustion came from the cold weather.
Even though I thought I had to check the route with iPhone, I didn't even want to try with my cold hands.
Somehow arrived at Kinshi-cho. That was much harder than I expected. It was so cold and that was one of the reason I got tired.
I have to check the way in my iPhone...
I thought like that but I could not do it smoothly as my hands went numb.
距離的には約半分。
しかし、荒川超えの寒さと人混み渋滞で急に疲れが出てきた。疲労度はすでに90%に到達。歩くなんて考えた自分を恨めしく思う。そういえばヒールの女性は減少。公園やコンビニで休む人も増加。
やったー江戸川を渡れば千葉だ~。と思ったら、なんと目の前の橋は高速道路で人は渡れず。係員が通してくれない。一気に疲労度が100%超える。
「人は絶望の前では無力になる」
その言葉の意味が少しわかった。
江戸川沿いに約4km橋を目指すためだけに歩くのはむなしい。
When crossing done Edogawa, it's Chiba-. When I thinks so, surprisingly, a person can't cross an immediate bridge on the freeway. A staff doesn't let me through. Degree of fatigue exceeds 100 % quickly.
"People become powerless before despair."
The meaning of the language understood a few.
It is empty to walk only in order to aim at about 4km bridge to along Edogawa.
But, my exhaustion become at peak because of cold over the Arakawa River and crowds of people. Sensation of fatigue already reached at 90% level. I regretted myself thinking about walking back home. As I noticed, there are few women in heels. More people started resting in the parks and convenience stores.
I thought that I would be in Chiba at last once I across the Edo River. However, the bridge in front of me was highway and people on the foot could not across. The officials would not let me through. Sensation of fatigue reached over 100% at once.
"People become helpless when they face to desperation."
I finally understood the meaning of the words a little.
It is meaningless to walk along Edo river side about 4 km only to find a bridge.
However, I felt sudden fatigue by cold and people jam. I got tired already 90%. I thought I had been fool that I had decided to walk. I noticed there are few ladies wearing high heels. Number of people who take rest in the park or convenience stores are increased.
Yeah I can arrive at Chiba pref. when I pass Edo-river. I thought but no man could pass the bridge as the bridge was highway only for car. Person in charge does not let me enter. My tired level reached 100%.
"Man become no power when he face despair."
I knew the mean of the word to some extent.
That was too pity to walk about 4km side of Edo-river just for going to the bridge.
やっと橋にたどり着く。
だけど、ここでも篠崎からより遠い。
川が恨めしい。
やっと到着。
長い道のりでした。
だけど、まだまだ歩いている人がいる。
大変だ~。
