A camera crew followed us up to Ishinomaki, about an hour north-northeast of Sendai today and got us in the local and national news. One of our colleagues got an email from his host family in Tokyo that they had seen the coverage so it was very cool to think of millions of Japanese hearing about Oregonians coming to help en masse.
See the video here on FNN (Fuji News Network).
So tired right now, but today was a day where the smiles got bigger and the spirits got higher. We were finally able to roll up our sleeves and have at it. We made lots of friends along the way and saw the bonds within our group grow even stronger.
More stories and pictures to come soon...
