On my way home from work I stopped by at a flower shop along the Meguro-dori. It’s a small shop that I have used before but it was quite some time since the last time now. I know Chie likes white and they had a variety of white flowers so white it was 🙂

Water is NOT Safe
In one of three water purification plants in Tokyo they now have detected levels of radioactive iodine that makes it unsafe for infants to drink [Kyodo News]. The limit for infants is 100 Bq/kg whereas the detected levels are 210 Bq/kg. Still this is well below the limit of 300 Bq/kg for adults. To be compared with the Swedish limit of 500 Bq/kg for adults.
Can’t Live with Them, Can’t Live without Them
The title is referring to cell-phones and nothing else 🙂 And the reason for it is that they wake you up when you least want it. Just before midnight yesterday someone with an “Unknown ID” called my phone. Then very early morning an earthquake alarm was sent to the cell-phone, and although the earthquake never affected Tokyo the damage was already done. I was wide awake and could not have a good sleep after that.
