Busan weekend. More terrible news from Japan

this weekend I went down to Busan to buy some new jeans and do some sightseeing in Nampodong and the western coastal areas. I also managed to meet a few people and try a few new restaurants. It was a good weekend and I'm loving my new jeans.

I also notice that the numbers in Japan are getting worse by the minute. 10,000 dead and nuclear plants in dangerous condition. This is the worst disaster for Japan since WWII the Japanese PM has now said. I'm really happy to see the outflow of support from their neighbours (who are still very bitter over Japan's actions in WWII and their unwillingness to acknowledge them even now) and the wider world.

If you haven't donated yet I urge you to do so. The Red Cross has funds set up and there are others as well (though make sure it's real, there are actually people out there who have set up fake charities to scam people. This was also done in the New Zealand quake. It's just sickening but you need to look out for it).
