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...
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.
