Item Description
Yesterday, we had a personal reminder of the impact of the tragic Tohoku tsunami right here at the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre. On March 11, 2011, Mr. Sasaki lost his fishing boat to the tsunami near Ofunato, Japan. Mr. Sasaki survived because his town was high above the ocean but residents of surrounding towns were not so lucky. The powerful tsunami tore through low lying areas, destroying property and devastating entire communities.
