The kids ate icy-poles, played and watched DVDs. The adults stood on the balcony in amazement at the smoke like monster's breath, not too far away. Z's mum came to join us, her house under threat.
Inside the radio is turned to the emergency fire station, outside sirens herald the presence of brave fighters.
We are all exhausted now, the kids picking up on our angst.
The wind wants to carry us home.

I am thinking of you and yours and wishing you: Safety, cooling temperatures, heavy rainfall, dying wind, happy children, good natured games of Scrabble, homecoming to homes that are intact, and that first deep, deep breath full of luckiness and relief.
So much love to you.

Hi Meg, it was great to hear that you are all ok. We have been in Sydney away from it all but coming back today.
Take care, love to all of you.

Hi meg
So hard to believe that the unthinkable could happen in our beautiful home town. Must be shocking for every one. We will be thinking of you and all our friends on Friday sending love from the other side of the world, and please say hi to your sister and family for us. We are drowning in an everlasting down pour here in Japan its all so hard to believe.
