It is a very hard balancing act as you have to take all parties into consideration and too many moving parts. The no movement days is something I cant believe exists, I guess if we were down there in it we would feel it more and be more on the "how the tourists free up so side".
The thing is, even if you free up everybody, even the small biz man for that day, there would still be complaints about tourist roaming freely spreading covid
Speaking bout craft vendors, I saw a Japanese site that supporting them by selling their art. would love to do something like that. Though I still have crafts I couldn't sell from way back when.
