Major Twitter trending topic right now:
http://twitter.com/#!/search/Tokyo%20Disneyland
Lots of Tweets about the parking lot of Disney Sea being under water.
I have nothing to say, just starting the topic.

We're praying for everyone in the affected areas! We were in shock to hear about the earthquake. We also have family in Hawaii and have not heard anything yet.

I saw photos of the parking lot being flooded and how people are trapped inside the park. I really hope they'll get out soon. I've been watching MSNBC and Fox News for two hours since the tsunami hit and it's so heartbreaking.

This is very sad, not just for the people stuck at TDL but for all the people affected. I hope all is well with your relatives in Hawaii MmeLeota!

Thanks. So far so good, but all we can do is wait right now. They have done what they can and are in what should be a safe area.

Because my family was there this time last year, and because they came back with glowing stories of how
beautiful it was, how kind, generous, gracious,and thoughtful the people were, how adorably precious the children were, how spotlessly clean the parks and hotel were kept, and how much they wanted to go back...my heart just aches for these people...and I pray for their safety.

The park itself may have some problems due to the fact it's built on a landfill area to recover land from sea. Currently both parks are closed. We'll need to stay tune as more information about the park's safety and integrity are determined.
Let's all pray that the loss of human life will be as low as possible from this disaster.

Crazy pictures. The emergency preparedness in Japan is impressive though.
No one's gloomy or complaining while the flatware's entertaining.

Japan has been very aware that such a disaster can occur. They have stricter building codes because of earthquakes.

I can expect that they will go over every ride and attraction to make sure everything is safe. My heart goes out to everyone who was effected by this tragedy.
