Tsunami

My home town called Mie Prefecture is located near by Pacific Ocean. My grandparents lived in the house which over looking a beautiful beach.  Every summer vacation, I stayed there with my cousin and went to the beach every day. I have seen tsunami a couple of times when I was staying there.  Before tsunami comes, the sea tide gets extremely low.  It is horrible scene to watch the sea water goes out very far. 

The tsunami that occurred yesterday in Japan were many times more powerful than I saw.  I would assume that it was unimaginable horror for the people who live in the northeast of coastal area of Japan. On Japanese TV, all the regular programs are cancelled and they keep reporting the situation of the incident. I saw that one of the whole town was sunk into the water.  Many people are still can not find their loved ones safety.  I knew that we can't control the force of nature, but this incident made me realize it again.
