Did anyone happen to see a lot of tourists yesterday? I just happened to be in Shibuya, so I saw many tourists, but maybe they came before yesterday. Also I heard they got rid of the SOS app requirement. Now it is like traveling pre pandemic!
I traveled home this summer, anyone have any plans to travel abroad soon?
Seems some ppl have pbs to get through tho. I saw someone stuck at the airport on Instagram yesterday: they wouldn't let him through but I don't know the reason.
As for my plans of going abroad I wanna watch the situation a little bit more before making a decision. Also plane tickets prices have jumped like crazy (at least to Europe) and that's a new issue to consider for me.
The latest in the Japan Times says that there isn't a huge influx yet. The biggest thing for me - receiving friends from abroad who are regular visitors. Air travel out of Japan is hideously expensive right now, so it looks like I'll be exploring more Japan when I get a holiday.
