Most tourists occupy most of the crowds because it is a tourist spot, but the residents themselves are few and there is not much congestion at present. Each museum and church has its own decisions about whether to open it or not. It is possible to open in Italy as a whole according to the established rules. Re-opening of the Florence Museum of Art is undecided. The Boboli Gardens will open from 21 May, the Pitti Palace will open from 28 May and the Uffizi Gallery will open from 3 June.

Since the activity freeze of the guide has been canceled from May 22, tour operations are possible. Since there are still no foreign tourists coming in, the actual rules may change in the future, but all tour participants wear masks, there is no heat above 37.5 degrees, the group is 10 people. The conditions are that each participant must keep a distance of 1.8 m (family members can stick together) and whisper (earphones where the voice of the guide can be heard) must be used.

On May 11, France has lifted the curfew. Many museums are still closed, but there are places where the botanical gardens and gardens have been given permission to reopen, and the tropical botanical garden at the summit of Ez Washisumura, one of the most popular tourist destinations for Japanese people, has been reopened. The restaurants and cafes in the village were closed, but the gallery and shops were slightly open.

At this time (May 22, Hawaii time), all people coming to Hawaii until June 30 will need two weeks of self-isolation. This is the most important! Even if various measures are eased, even if an airplane flies from Japan or a hotel opens, it will not be a trip because of the self-isolation period! I can't even say 14 nights and 16 days.

From the other day (Hawaii time, May 22nd), the reopening of retail stores has been lifted! In Waikiki, more than half of the stores, including Vuitton, were open. When I looked into Vuitton, a clerk was chatting near the entrance. I can imagine the contents. Apple shop also open! For some reason there was a line outside. Is a new product released?

Is it in time? Swap the sands of Waikiki Beach! Waikiki Beach changes its sand once every two years due to hygiene and less sand. The contrast between the mobile crane and Duke Kahanamoku, who felt like the beach was released sooner than I expected, and Duke Kahanamoku. I mean, maybe this time I didn't carry sand...

Safety measures

The Hawaii Government, Hawaii Tourism Bureau, and several major tourism companies will discuss future safety standards. Since before Corona, Hawaii has been a tourist that considers local culture and environmental conservation. The so-called "sustainable tourism" debate has been escalated and there has been a move to remove tourists from the beach, so what level of safety is important first.

Currently, all arrivals from outside Hawaii are required to be self-isolated for 14 days, and on Oahu, residents are requested to stay at home/work as much as possible until the end of June, "Safer-at-home". "order" is ongoing. Jogging, walking and shopping are possible. The beach has also been lifted from May 16th. It is the direction to release little by little.

I am swimming in the sea every day for exercise, but the locals are slowly beginning to appear in the sea. Because the number of people is small, the sea is cleaner than before, and when I swim a little offshore, I often encounter wild sea turtles at Waikiki Beach. You will be healed when you see the swimming comfortably.

Our company is also waiting for home now. As a post-resumption plan, we are considering measures such as wearing a mask and limiting the number of van passengers. Please come to Hawaii with peace of mind. We pray for the end of our lives as soon as possible, and we strongly hope that we can meet everyone in Japan soon.

On Monday, May 11, France began a gradual easing of curfew restrictions. Along with that, tourism in Mont-Saint-Michel has resumed, and is gradually regaining its original vibrancy. While taking the hygiene control measures announced by the government, measures are being taken to ensure safe tourism.
