On Thursday, May 6th, I went to Sedna for a new project of bear trip.

Although it was not as crowded as it was before the summer vacation, the liveliness before Corona was completely restored.
AIRPORT MESA, RED ROCK CROSSING, BELL ROCK, UPTOWN, etc. are all full of parking lots, and only Sedona seems to be a tourist destination where the economy has improved in Corona.

In fact, according to the Sedona Tourism Board, the number has hardly decreased last year compared to 2019, when the number of people was the highest ever, and since the beginning of this year, the sales record of the same month in the past has been updated every month. It seems that the local residents are constantly complaining to the city of Sedona due to the congestion.
For residents, it takes more than twice as long to move as usual due to worsening traffic congestion, illegal parking on the streets increases due to lack of parking lots on trails and tourist spots, and problems with tourist manners such as dumping garbage. While I am happy to be busy as a tourist destination, many problems seem to be piled up.

Accommodations in Sedona now have no group guests at all, and reservations can be made by individual guests who can afford it, if not wealthy, so the average nightly rate is $ 300- $ 400 a day. There are many, and this is also the highest ever.
Due to lack of accommodation, apartments in the city have been transformed into hotels, housing has become AIR B & B, and the housing of people working in Sedna is being lost and rents are rising, and it is also a big problem that there are not enough workers. It seems that it is.

As the United States enters summer vacation from the end of this month, tourism demand in Sedona will increase even further.

The Grand Canyon National Park has announced new guidelines for operating tours, which will take effect on May 8.

Currently, there is a limit on the number of people to tour in Grand Canyon National Park, and only 10 people including drivers and guides can board one bus, but from Saturday all passengers have been vaccinated. If there is evidence that the corona test result is negative within 72 hours, 100% boarding is permitted.
Even if the above proof is not obtained from all passengers, 50% of passengers or up to 10 passengers are allowed.
Until now, many bus companies have canceled the tour because less than 10 passengers could be taken on the tour regardless of the size of the vehicle, but the number of domestic tourists visiting Las Vegas is increasing. In addition to this, with this change in rules, I think that the Grand Canyon sightseeing tours to and from Las Vegas will be resumed all at once.

Disneyland in California has reopened, and tourist destinations in the United States are returning to normal for the summer vacation.

J & J, Pfizer, and Moderna vaccines are available. A GOTV campaign recommending vaccination has also started. Employees will be given three days of paid leave after vaccination.
The vaccination barrier is gradually getting lower, and Las Vegas is planning to return the casino to normal business from June. The show, a symbol of entertainment, will be back in July.

In Japan, the movie "Kimetsu no Yaiba" released on October 16th last year will be released at the same time in the North American area of the United States and Canada from April 23rd, which is about half a year later.

In the United States, it will be screened in about 1500 movie theaters, but here in Las Vegas, it will be screened in 13 movie theaters.
The movie will be screened in two patterns, an English subtitled version and a dubbed version, so we Japanese are grateful that we can watch the movie with the voice of the original voice actor by selecting the English subtitled version.

Since many states have relaxed admission restrictions for indoor facilities for some time, movie theaters have been reopening rapidly throughout the United States since the spring break.
Attention is being paid to whether the movie theaters that want to revive the long-slumped business at once with this "Kimetsu no Yaiba" can meet their expectations.

I also checked the ticket with the intention of watching it on the weekend, but there was still room for seats.

We held a tour of the Grand Canyon on Wednesday, April 21st.

Due to the spring break, the park was very crowded for about a month from mid-March to mid-April, and there was a long line of traffic at the entrance. I was back in the crowd.

The next peak will be on Memorial Day weekend, a national holiday in late May. Summer vacations in the United States often start around that time, and even the end of May to the first weekend of September (Labor Day holidays) is a busy summer season.

The customer on that day was a couple of teddy bears, not people.
A gift from the family to grandpa and grandma to celebrate the 50th wedding ceremony.
We had the opportunity to present such a wonderful celebration, and we were even more enthusiastic than usual when we released the shutter.
The observatory in the Grand Canyon was quite strong, and I was very careful not to blow the stuffed animals to the bottom of the valley.
