Japan Earthquakes in 2011

This video is really impressive. It is a representation of all the earthquakes that shaked Japan during 2011. At 1:45 the really big shake starts, first with a M7.3 earthquake on March 9th (it was some kind of warning about what was coming next) and then a M9.0 two days later, which unleashed hundreds of replicas that had us feeling seasick (earthsick?) and frightened for months.


Watch it with the sound on!

Starbucks in Fukuoka designed by Kengo Kuma

A new Starbucks designed by architects in Kengo Kuma’s team has recently been inaugurated in Fukuoka. It seems that it is located near Dazaifu Tenman-gū temple, a little bit far from downtown. I will try to go there in my next visit to Fukuoka.
