Latest COVID-19 conditions

Today 11/18 is Disneyland's Mickey Mouse and Minnie's birthday!
It seems that ceremonies are being held in various places, but the Disney Resort park in Anaheim is still closed.
Meanwhile, measures to strengthen infection prevention were announced in California.
Effective Friday, November 20th https://covid19.lacount…

The average of COVID-19 cases over the last 7 days has almost doubled since the beginning of November, and hospitalizations have increased to well over an average of about 900 to 1,000 per day over the same period.
• For non-essential businesses that are allowed to operate indoors, such as retail stores, offices, and personal care services, occupancy is limited to 25% of maximum capacity.
• The number of patrons in outdoor restaurants, breweries and wineries is limited to 50% of the maximum outdoor capacity.
• Services at personal care facilities are available only to customers who are wearing face covers by staff wearing face covers. Facials and shavings are not allowed.
If the average number of cases in the county for 5 days is more than 4,500 or the number of hospitalizations exceeds 2,000 per day, the following restrictions will be added. Curfew will begin until 10 pm and 6 am, and restaurants will be banned from eating and drinking outdoors again.
I hope that the measures at the water's edge will be successful.

Disney will open Buena Vista Street from 11/19/2020.
Information on the spread of COVI19 has been reported around the world.
In California, USA, Governor Newsom announced a two-week voluntary quarantine for visitors from outside the state. There are no fines, but they convey the severity of the situation. By the way, even before Independence Day, the beach was strictly prohibited from entering, so I think it is a preventive measure in anticipation of the coming holiday season.
Even if you can't eat or drink in-store at all in Los Angeles, you can usually eat and drink in-store in San Diego County in the same state of California, and the rules are different for each county. Los Angeles continues to be under strict rules, so it's likely that other counties will raise regulations.
In such a lonely situation, we received a notice that Disneyland will open Buena Vista Street, which is an area where you can eat and shop in California Adventure, from November 19/2020 on November 5/2020.
https://disneyland.disn…
It's not the opening of the park, but an extension of downtown Disney in the shopping area, but as a Disney fan, it's exciting to think that you can get closer to the garden.
The following shops can be enjoyed in the Buena Vista area.
Carthay Circle Lounge --Alfresco Dining> Classic American dining. It is a high-grade restaurant where you can enjoy steak and wine.
Fiddler, Fifer & Practical Cafe > Delicious American hamburger shop
Smokejumpers Grill
This shop boasts plump and crispy hot dogs.
Award Wieners Elias & Co.> A souvenir shop full of Disney goods.
Trolley Treats> A sweets specialty store with lots of American candies and treats.
I hope it will open safely on the 19th.

<11/16 NY Harlem Holiday Lights Turned on>

Annual "Harlem Holiday Lights" lighting ceremony at 125th Street, downtown Harlem,

From now on until New Year's Eve
The center of Harlem is brilliantly colored.


This year, due to the influence of the corona pandemic,
Various events have been canceled

Due to the turmoil in the US presidential election
Fifth Avenue in NY is still covered with glass shop windows, and some stores have closed.

I'm relieved to have such an "unchangeable daily life".


Speaking of everyday life that does not change
On Saturday, November 14th, in front of Rockefeller Center on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan,
This year too, a huge 22-meter Christmas tree has arrived.

From now on, it will be decorated with more than 50,000 LED lights.
When a Swarovski star rides on the top,

Finally, Wednesday, December 2nd, NY time from 7:00 to 9:00 pm,
"NY Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony!" Reported in World News

I'm looking forward to the amazing performance of a gorgeous star every year.
Many people line up in NY in the midwinter from about 3 pm,

This year, in order to avoid "denseness", there was no audience and only TV broadcasting was available.

Japan time will be 9am-11am on Thursday, December 3rd.
I hope you can find it on the internet and see it in Japan.

<Let's walk together in NY Harlem, a city full of music>

The US presidential election in Corona, which attracted the world's attention,
Finally calm down,

No worried riots or looting so far

The plywood that all New York stores laid out in the glass shop windows has also begun to be removed.

Immediately before the announcement, I
Participated in the Japanese news program "Saturday Station" from New York with Zoom
I talked about the presidential election.


Harlem is very calm now.


I have compiled a video of the "now" harem that is not reported in the news, so

Please take a look as if you were walking with me ↓
■ Please subscribe to the channel as well.

We would appreciate it if you could prepare for the harem until we meet next time.

Halloween is over and it's November. Daylight saving time is over, and New York is finally entering full-scale winter.
Speaking of Halloween in New York, the famous Village Halloween Parade. Held annually on October 31st and attended by about 2 million people, this parade is known as the largest Halloween parade in the United States.
This year (Saturday, October 31), the 47th event was scheduled to be held during the full moon, but it was canceled due to the influence of COVID-19.
New York was a quieter Halloween night than usual, as there weren't any parties gathering around.
However, a New Yorker who never forgets to play even in such a case. Not to mention Jack-o'-Lantern, which is the usual Halloween season, COVID-19, Black Lives Matter, and the presidential election a few days later were involved to tell the story of the turbulent 2020. There were some decorations here and there.
There is irony, there is humor ... Smile involuntarily with the decoration of each house full of entertainment spirit.
Trick or Treat, which children are looking forward to, will not be handed over this year to prevent COVID-19 infection. Instead, there are some houses that prepare small pieces of sweets and candies at the front door.
Since Halloween was Saturday, it was funny to see children in disguise walking around the residential area from early afternoon.
Perhaps because it was a quiet city, the Empire State Building and the City Hall Building, which were surrounded by Halloween-style lights, looked dimly bright.
Today is the day of the presidential election.
There is an unprecedented sense of tension in various parts of the United States.

Did you know that zoo-related activities are open while theme parks such as Disneyland are still closed?
Los Angeles Zoo too! !!
https://www.lazoo.org
Aquarium on Long Beach also requires a limited time ticket, but admission is possible.
https://www.aquariumofp…
Meanwhile, we would like to inform you about the deals of Sea World in San Diego. For a limited time, if you purchase an annual pass this year, you will be able to enter from 2020 to the end of 2021 for a one-time admission fee of $ 93.99. As with Aquarium, the admission is currently reserved in advance, so although there are some restrictions, it is a nice deal for fans.
I hope that various activities will come back one after another!

Celebration Los Angeles Dodgers wins World Series! !!
10/27/2020
At the same time as the victory was decided, the sound of fireworks echoed throughout the city, celebrating the feat for the first time in 32 years.
For the past few years, I have been crying with regret, as the team has the ability, but I couldn't show my ability in the World Series, and the opponent team stole the signature in the decisive battle last year. For that reason, the joy of not only the players but also the local hot fans is great. The happy smile of the car show pitcher staring at the winning trophy is dazzling!
The car show has won the Cy Young Award three times in total, and although it usually has a pretty cool image, yesterday was a big smile!
Other team members are also talented.
Thank you for the good news that will blow away the melancholy of the coronavirus. This year, the Lakers of the basket also won the championship, and it was an unforgettable year coupled with the feat of the Dodgers.
I hope we can support you with our customers next season.

Autumn leaves in the suburbs of New York have reached their peak, but speaking of autumn leaves spots where you can enjoy the deepening autumn in the city ... Needless to say, Central Park!
Familiar with New Yorkers and one of New York's leading tourist attractions, the park is known as the world's largest urban park, completed in 1876. The annual number of visitors is 42 million (2019 statistics)!

Central Park is one of the most seasonal spots in New York City.
It's fascinating to enjoy the beautiful scenery of each season, but you can't miss the autumn-autumn leaves season, which is one of the shortest seasons in New York!
As the word "Autumn in New York" (and the movie) says, Central Park, which is dyed in golden color, is worth a visit.

There are several recommended spots in Central Park where you can feel "autumn", but the best one is the Conservatory Garden.
https://www.centralpark…
This garden is located in the north of Central Park, and many people have never visited it.
It consists of three styles, England, Italy and France, and the main flowers bloom in each garden each season.

Currently, the chrysanthemums, cosmos, and marigolds in the French garden are in full bloom ... The bright colors are a masterpiece.
If you take this opportunity to enjoy the autumn colors of Central Park, why not visit the Conservatory Garden! ??
There are main entrance gates on Fifth Avenue and 105th Avenue, which can be accessed from various locations within Central Park.

The autumn colors of Central Park this year (2020) seem to peak from now (the last week of October) to the beginning of November.
When you see the scenery of the trees in the park dyed in gradations of green, yellow, and red, you may forget that you are in Manhattan surrounded by buildings.
Enjoy the few autumns in New York!

The most popular attraction in Los Angeles is that the theme parks, each with its own unique characteristics, are gathered in close proximity!
It has been half a year since attractions around the world closed their doors due to the influence of the coronavirus.
As attractions around the world are making progress in reopening efforts in consideration of the risk of corona infection, here in California, the protocol rules for opening the park submitted by the state government are very strict. Almost all attractions have not been reopened.
Both your favorite Disneyland Resort and Knott's Berry Farm with cute Snoopy have their doors closed tightly.
Meanwhile, the California Attractions and Theme Park Association (commonly known as CAPA), to which many theme parks belong, has requested each association to cooperate in signing activities.
This is a signature for California Governor Newsom to request the reopening of the theme park. The spread of corona infections around the world is very serious, but the current situation of theme park closures may be wasting not only the economy but also the opportunity to make memories of the family and precious time. It is a heartfelt appeal.
I hope that everyone's voice will be taken up and the theme park will be reopened in a safe manner.
