Many Residents from Japan Flee to US
Poziom:
Temat: Wiadomości
At one of the busiest airports in the world,
it is more than the joy of seeing family
for the travelers from Japan.
'I hate to say the word grateful
but I'm grateful.
It's with a heavy heart that I say that.'
Lidnsay Sakamoto, her husband and their friends
live near Tokyo.
They did not want to come to Los Angeles
and leave their relatives behind.
But the nuclear crisis there
was too close to home.
'We finally made the ultimate decision that it was time to go.
And it's very heart breaking because
all our spouses are Japanese
and they don't want to necessarily leave their families and leave their country
but to be safe and to protect us they all came.'
With a two year old son,
Kai Odagiri also decided to seek safety in the U.S. with her sister.
'Things getting worst
that's why we have to leave - for him.'
Even though there is a sense of relief for many of these travelers
when they finally land in the U.S.
the terror of the earthquake still haunts them.
iI was so scared. It [shook, a] very big shake.'
Lyle Carr has lived through earthquakes before.
But this one was different.
'Earthquakes are normally enough in Japan
that if you're in a coffee shop
and one hits and I'm talking like this its
oh we have an earthquake
and then you go back to talking like nothing's
...like it's something that happened all the time.
This one didn't stop.'
I jumped on my bed and tried to take cover
because it was the safest area in our particular apartmenet
but things started falling on me
so I left really fast and I went outside
and stood on the ground while things rocked.'
Many of these travelers say they are glad to have friends and family to stay within the U.S.
but they look forward to the day
when they can safely go home again.
