Wasao Visits Tsunami Survivors
Celebrity dog Wasao has taken a break from his stationmaster job in Aomori so he can visit children at a evacuation shelter in tsunami-hit Kesennuma:
Children at the shelter were given school supplies and a chance to have their picture taken with Wasao.
The visit was made after Wasao’s master discovered that a 14-year-old girl who had written fan letters to Wasao had lost her home in the tsunami and was now living at the shelter.
(If Wasao looks tired in the video, it’s because it was a rather warm day. Apparently he prefers the cool weather up in Aomori prefecture.)
