This will probably be the final update.
My sister and her two girls flew into a QLD airport today, their plane was 4 hours late leaving Japan because it was very hard to get aircrew willing to go to Japan to man the flight out.
She was picked up by a friend she met in Sendai, another Aus family that lived there until mid last year, with whom they became very close. She and the girls are now safe at the friend's house.
I think that they are in the best place for now because they are with very close friends who know Sendai, who they shared their lives in Sendai with. I think it will help them to talk about what happenned.
Thankfully they didn't really see any of the mass devastation, they where outside the tsunami area and did not go rubber knecking to see what had happenned.
My Japanese brother in law stayed behind as he has a business there to attend to and his family, including 4 siblings and their families who all live within the 80 K exclusion zone around Fukushima.
I hope they will all come out of this unharmed.
