We walked to the grocery store--which is normal for me (We live about a 10 minute walk from the grocery store and it is a good chance to get us out for a walk and then I can put the groceries under the stroller). I didn't even think to be thankful for the blessing of being able to walk to get groceries, when someone mentioned that they probably wouldn't walk to Wal-Mart! Anyway, most things were available, but things like milk, natto (fermented soy beans), bottled water, eggs, toilet paper, etc., had signs on them saying that we could only buy one per family.
We plan to go to church tomorrow. Apparently in Yamanashi (the prefecture where our church is), there aren't lines for gas and most of the gas stations are open. It is more "country" than Tokyo. We look forward to being able to assemble together again.
