As you are all aware of by now, a huge earthquake stuck Japan on March 11th 2011. The effects in Yokohama were pretty mild compared to other areas in Japan but it was still a pretty big shakeup. If you are in Yokohama and need some information about the earthquake or what to do in the aftermath Yoke has set up an information center in Minato Mirai. Details are as follows:
