The let me see if thats really the most important thing thats not the same thing to keep your hands clean at all times so that. If the virus is around its here thats going to get it into your system a system that lets. The danish quality manager has spent every day of the past few weeks with the hotel chains Corona Task Force its their job to make sure all the workers put the governments 21 new hygiene protocols into practice by far the greatest challenge is reforming the work routines another town restaurants yeah here and the patrons wont be able to take it all themselves here in an hour. By that is what they are and our last contamination got that mean that your horses are so average that theres a lot of room back there here thats on top of us and i think thats where our personnel look the dish orders are that it was a rally on the plates and that to let you take out even. The 3 months of lockdown have already left them mock around the island it was imposed in early spring right at the start of the vacation season many businesses in the bathing resort of puerto to alcudia havent opened since last autumn the anons economy has lost approximately 1000000000 euros a month since the crisis began. Down on the beach everythings ready for the 1st tourist to make sure they keep the proper distance the number of the challenges has been cant find 3 quarters the rental agent gasp on company hardly has anything left to do only a few islanders around here today. Study a food. Sunday like this the beach would normally be a completely full by this that. This is a very popular section of especially with families and couples to. Go water isnt very deep. And everything is nice and pleasant around here. Normally wed have a lot going on here but. This little fast food shop put the fruits of that isnt it high rise home towns reopened about 2 weeks ago man while selling garo has been serving a few local patrons beer and burgers but his regular customers have yet to show up. You know how they manage to germans always better brought borst and theyre satisfied that weve been crying a lot or scared for 38 years now and the germans always think it tastes good with current glory. Manuel sound ya know is also well prepared and hes replaced his menus with q archives. But with all that money its almost to majorca as a 2nd home to many germans or dont know about this but. If you take majorca away from the journalist you dont buy your theyve got a problem. If you take the journalists away from us weve got a problem not that im one of. The next morning a plane carrying the long awaited solution to that problem comes in for a landing slightly delayed from the 1st german vacationers have arrived at parma demi york an apple and spain wont officially be opening its borders till late june and exceptions be made for the guests from germany with infections apparently dropping that and the need for tourist euros rapidly growing over 4000000. 00 germans come to the island every year and spend their money before they head for the beach they have to have their temperatures taken and fill out some Health Question as in the arrivals terminal over 100 members of the press from around the world awaiting for a scoop tourists are taking their Summer Vacation not even when the very 1st east German Tourists arrived in new york or after the fall of the berlin wall 30 years ago wasnt such a media sensation say the older reporters just thought that it was his goal i think its because we had a total walk down for 3 months and in that time everything we are used to being stopped being normal you know i dont know the and what you didnt used to lose by millions of germans were coming to majorca is now billionaires. And here they are the new stars on the island and how do they feel how is the new. Hell send us on board. Every holidaymaker is mocked by reporters thomas and antonio tobe or have arrived in the morning from. The lightless by those 67 days but i guess the press that was the illness that youre here with that you wanted the family at home say about this holiday did they think it was a good idea or not they may have been a bit worried 199 holidaymakers came on the 1st blank the next 200 germans are expected 910 off to noon. I. As mentioned not only islanders welcome this experiment spains been hit is specially hard by the corona pandemic the last few months over 27000 people died in this country some people here worry that thousands of holidaymakers returning to the beaches could bring new infections the graffiti sounds new yorker is not an Experimental Lab you know that they will tell me all this im a little afraid not that all the tourists is that a lot of this is that i said now well just have to go to hell with it and i get along i mean it is and i would any and id say we had this initiative that was because we want to say and they leave it in tourism. Its in our own interests but of course they mustnt lose sight of the health aspect. At their most any idea you want there but somehow we have to return to normal so why dont we on the no no we have to be my cautious but we cant change the situation. You know we shouldnt d go about it at the current times when it was so overcrowded everywhere around here we need a more prudent and easy goes or is that. For years the debate has raged on the island over how to reconcile mass tourism and sustainability the corona crisis im pleased fine. The discussion at the same time it showed the islanders just how dependent they really are on holiday makers some 3 quarters of new yorkers economic output comes from the Tourism Sector that might help explain why the participants in the Pilot Project are given a royal welcome at the Hotel Important to alcudia and here to the reporters are ready and waiting even following them all the way to their rooms. Quality manager on a matter smart is also in high demand for interviews now much that what is normal night thats news now. Breaking news that out of. Antonia and tomas tobel the couple from the airport have had a little time to recover from the media frenzy at that hotel is their 1st make ation together for quite some time theyve been together for 4 years antonia originally came from ukraine she 1st met tomas in his capacity as a Refugee Council do you know i love the east but never in my life and i forgot to take a dish and theyre going to my mother just told me over whats up and said antonio we just know so you want Russian Television to see if they really did i can hardly believe that this is true one can come love and theres a spirit in. As soon as we got on the tour bus with an artist of a hotel we found out riggins wed been not only our Regional Government assure the past a coach to ask you know so much i can show it to you this wonderful design. Right in the middle of what would normally be peak season the projects participants have to be coming out of l. I dont know what most in time really to themselves the 10 days at hoff pension only cost them 400 euros it doesnt seem to bother them but the islands clubs if this goes on time now to open want many want more than anything is a break from all the weeks of lockdown restrictions. Actually all we want to do is out in the street. Oh god where shall we go which borders are open and which arent what would be more relaxing majorca without. Their help and does so yeah and weve earned it im an Occupational Health hers for example when i was ill going our boards have been suspected cases of covert infection so weve already been through some things the. Emotional as well this is just thankful that we can be healing here and were starting to climb a wall because this is a real liberation. Back at the Hotel Antonia and tomas realize even their holiday is saddled with restrictions the protocol for dinner is complicated. How does this work here. As a good question. Because. You have to go in a circle. The Hotel Personnel watch every move like home just the 1st disinfect then put the clubs are there disinfect again then down the mess thats 50 feet like this really feels like being admitted to the current i would just like that my job. At the sun down on the beach things are noticeably more relaxed in spite of all the social distancing the holiday makers can chat with one another. He said i keep saying well never experience anything like this again its sad that i want to experience it again but if it werent for the fact that so few people are on the beach you will need to notice that anything special is happening here. Not many others all that read last about it surveys have shown that because of the pandemic a majority of europeans prefer to go without their holiday cocktails on foreign beaches but at the same. Weve seen this time and again as a for instance after terrorist attack people stay away from the vacations for 4 or 5 years its done eventually they can get used to anything i think i think it is and then ill be back in full force but i think itll take a bit of psychological self persuasion with a lot of people who are still a little nervous right now. Slowly but surely it starts to feel like vacations used to frank tony and thomas but even after the 10000 pilot holidaymakers miyoko wont start welcoming the tourist crowds back any time soon when nor if the island is able or even willing the result of this experiment may well.
