A small relief effort in Japan after the Tsunami

This is a small relief effort for the survivors of Japan's 2011 magnitude 9.0 quake that triggered massive tsunamis destroying much of the coast of northern Honshu.

Two Australian's living in Niseko Hokkaido loaded a van and drove to the most affected areas to deliver food, water and basic supplies. The rest of the nation was crippled by fuel shortages and aid was subsequently stalled. ;

This is a small relief effort.

Japan Snow Report - The Daily Flake 3 March 2011 FINAL REPORT

It's our final snow report for the season but make sure you check in with us tomorrow because we'll be posting a wrap up of the season. And it has been an awesome one!

These reports are updated everyday so make sure you keep watching!

These reports are filed from Niseko, a ski resort on Japan's north Island, Hokkaido. These days, the resort is famous for its incredible and seemingly endless powder days.

The Daily Flake is available for viewing on a range of key snow and travel related websites, so it's easier to find than an Izakaya in Tokyo. ;
