The Grand Canyon National Park has contacted us today, and we are preparing to open the East Exit (Desert View Gate) of the South Rim National Park, which has been closed since March last year, on April 8.
The east exit, which faces the indigenous Navajo settlement, was inaccessible due to poor infection in the Navajo settlement, but it is expected to open as the situation improves. Has arrived.
Our tour was also forced to make a detour as the east exit was not available for the past year, but this will restore the journey from the Grand Canyon to Horseshoe Bend and Monument Valley.
Unfortunately, the reopening date for Antelope Canyon has not yet been announced, but it seems that the day for sightseeing is approaching.
California has been slow to resume business in the United States, but now we are announcing the resumption of theme parks one after another.
Universal Studios starts from 04/16. Disneyland will be open by appointment from 04/30.
That's exciting!

Cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Vancouver.
Of the approximately 150,000 roadside trees in this city, approximately 43,000 are lined with cherry blossom trees.
About 50 kinds of cherry blossoms such as Yoshino cherry tree and Kanzan of double cherry blossoms will slowly bloom in each area in a month.

Also, on the 28th today, we held a day trip to the Grand Canyon. The customer is also a family of four from Michigan. (Reserved from VELTRA)
As I mentioned in my last post, many tourists from all over the United States are coming to play in the middle of the spring break in the United States.
Yesterday and today, there was a traffic jam of more than 5 km at the entrance of the Grand Canyon, and it took more than an hour to pass through the entrance.
Las Vegas was also very crowded this weekend, and I feel like I've seen many of the hotel's rooms lit for the first time in a while.
The opening of the new Virgin Hotel on March 25th may also be a boost to attracting people to Las Vegas.
Today (Sunday), the daytime temperature in Las Vegas rose to 28 degrees Celsius, and it felt like early summer.
"Las Vegas!"
I want you to make a comeback as it is.
The photo I will post is today's (28th) Grand Canyon.

The National Park Service recently announced the number of visits in 2020, summarizing how the pandemic is affecting that number. According to data, the national park hosted more than 237 million recreations in 2020, down 27.6% from 2019, 94 million times less than the number of visitors in 2016, the 100th anniversary of the national park. ..
The 2020 figures are the lowest since 1980, reflecting the pandemic-related safety measures strongly supported by the NPCA to protect public safety and park staff. According to Park Services, 66 national park sites were closed for more than two months and remained closed at the end of the year. Most of the national parks are now reopened, and the number of domestic visitors is increasing due to the spring break.
Traveling from Japan to the United States seems to take some time to normalize diplomatic relations, but our Aqua Travel offers various online tours so that Japanese people can see the wilderness of the United States. I would like you to take this opportunity to experience it.

Nevada, where Las Vegas is located. As of March 26, more than 776,000 people have been vaccinated against coronavirus at least for the first time. That's about 32.5% of the state's adult population. (Pfizer and Moderna vaccinations are required twice)
More than 433,000 of them have completed the second vaccination. It is about 18.2% of the state's adult population.

On March 24th, we held a day tour of the Grand Canyon.
In the United States, there are many areas where schools are closed due to spring break, and the Grand Canyon and the tourist destinations around it are more crowded than ever.
The long-standing restrictions on behavior by Corona have been gradually lifted, and I feel that many people have begun to travel as a result of this spring break.
Many bus tours have not yet resumed, as there is currently a limit of 10 people per group in the Grand Canyon. Instead, the number of tourists visiting by car is increasing, and the traffic congestion at the entrance to the national park is becoming more difficult every day.
Yesterday, when we arrived at the site around 11:30, the traffic jam waiting for entry led to the Grand Canyon Airport, which was about 5 km away, and it took an hour and a half to enter.
According to the ranger, this situation will continue until Easter Sunday (April 4th).

You can get a glimpse of the local situation while visiting national parks all over the United States. Shenandoah National Park (Virginia) and its facilities, which had been closed since late November last year, are beginning to open for the season when the number of visitors from spring is high.
The Dickey Ridge Visitor Center will also open a contact station and park store from March 19th. Accommodations (and restaurants and gift shops) such as Skyland and Big Meadows Wayside will also open today from March 26th. The campsite will open on March 25th for Big Meadows and March 26th for Lewis Mountain. After that, each facility will gradually open.
Spring is a colorful season when alpine plants bloom in Shenandoah National Park.

You can get a glimpse of the local situation while going around the national parks in various parts of the United States. In Virginia, where Shenandoah National Park is located, the number of new coronavirus infections, which was 6.100 in late January (weekly average), has now dropped to 1,442 (weekly average). From March 1st, the number of people gathered outdoors has increased from 10 to 25 (10 people remain indoors). The restrictions on going out from midnight to 5:00 am, which had been restricted until the end of February, have been lifted from the same day.
I hope that the situation in the United States as a whole will converge and regulations will be relaxed.

Nevada announced yesterday that the number of people infected with corona was 147 a day and 14 people died. The positive rate of the test is 4.7%, which has been steadily declining since the peak in January.
From April 5th, all citizens over the age of 16 will be able to get the corona vaccination, which is a big move forward.
Please take a look at the problematic work that depicts the encounter with that fighting queen from Las Vegas, Nevada, which is striving toward such corona convergence.
