The photo is a seasonal white pineapple that can only be harvested from July to early September.
The production volume is also very small and it is difficult to obtain.
The taste is very high in sugar, low in sourness, and low in fiber.
It's so delicious that I'm surprised if this is pineapple.

On Monday, July 13, Governor of the State of Hawaii, David Ige, announced that the planned reopening of tourism from Saturday, August 1 will be postponed until at least the end of August.

From June 1, Ige Governor exempted the 14-day self-isolation measure by accepting tourists by presenting negative proof of PCR test received within 72 hours before traveling from August 1 Had announced that it would resume.

However, at today's legislative briefing, Governor Ige said, "We will postpone the 14-day self-isolation measures for all Hawaii arrivals until the end of August, and activate a corona pre-inspection to prevent the spread of infection from travelers. Pour."

Regarding the corona pre-screening test program that was scheduled to start in August, the Hawaii Department of Health Administration initially argued that a medical institution in Hawaii with the highest infection rate could respond. However, since the infection rate of the new corona in the mainland US has increased sharply since the end of last month, and the number of infected people has also increased rapidly in the states with many tourists to Hawaii, this plan should be taken in case of a sudden increase in the infection rate in Hawaii. Many people are worried about whether the inspection program will be able to deal with it.

Governor of Ige made this decision in response to concerns and pressure from lawmakers, including the mayors of the four islands of Hawaii. Among the opponents was Tulsi Gabbard, a member of the US House of Representatives (Democratic Party).

The Hawaii state legislature said, "A plan to pre-screen 72 hours prior to arrival in Hawaii is not appropriate for the situation right now. Simply increasing the risk of COVID-19 for people in the plane, hotel, and service industries would mean that I'm not trying to protect."

With this announcement, Hawaii's 14-day self-isolation measures for travelers starting in March will continue through May.

Hawaii, which decided to abandon the tourism resumption plan about two weeks later, did not lose the opportunity to rebuild the economy again, but it is noteworthy what action will be taken in the future.

Halekulani Hotel, a popular hotel, announced to close until July 2021 next year for renovation.

We hope that the situation will end and that everyone in Japan can travel with peace of mind as soon as possible.

The Fraser Valley near Vancouver is in the berry harvest season. Strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries are delicious at Abbotsford's Mann Farm. Usually you can go picking when you feel like it, but this year you need to book a date and time online. You cannot bring your own container to prevent new coronavirus infection, so you need to purchase one container for each person including children☆

We will deliver the beautiful starry sky of the island of Hawaii with photos.

While it was okay to use the beaches of the Island of Hawaii for surfing and exercise purposes only, more and more people are now relaxing and enjoying picnics. Many state parks such as Akaka Falls and Rainbow Falls are closed. General visitors can enter Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, but there are many places that are closed.
The town of Kailua-Kona on the Hawaiian island is very quiet with few tourists.

Last week, I participated in the "Taipei Keelung preview tour" organized by the Taiwan Tourism Board.
Due to the influence of corona, the number of people taking pictures around the "Queen of Noyanagi" has decreased.
It was easy to take a picture this time. (Lol)
For the first time, I saw you near the Majesty the Queen <(`^´)>

After that, I also visited Keelung's "Shohama fishing port".
This is an Instagram-worthy spot that has recently become famous among Taiwanese girls.
It's a fishing port, but it feels like you're in Venice, depending on how you take the photos.

At the moment, Taiwan's entry restrictions have not been lifted, but domestic travelers are gradually recovering, so
I'm sure it won't be long before we can meet everyone♪

This time I will send you a picture of Furano.
The weather continues in Hokkaido and the lavender fields are at their peak.
Perhaps it is also a boost to the crowd.
It seems that the Go To campaign has also been decided on July 22. I hope that you will be careful of Corona and tourism will recover.
