Lovely photos. It must be very quiet there without the tourists and especially without the cruise ships stopping and disgorging so many people. I have fond memories of a vacation we spent there when the kids were young - we rented a little house on the beach near Rum Point. Very peaceful - inside the reef, so no surf to worry about (the kids were little).

VERY quiet. Airport is still closed to "normal" traffic. No cruise ships since early March, none expected in the foreseeable future. We went through a harsh lockdown for about 8 weeks, but we're pretty much back to "normal", except for the lack of tourists. No mask mandate. Most of the businesses have even pulled up the 6 ft stickers on the floors. Only cases we've had for months are people coming back for whatever reason. And they have to go into mandatory government quarantine for 14 days and have two negative test before they are released...
We're pretty sterile here. There's good and bad for that...no exposure to the normal stuff that helps build resistance to the common cold and similar. That's actually a concern for us with regard to travelling when we can do it again.
Unquestionably, we're very fortunate here. But damn, it's also very strange.
Getting a little stir crazy not being able to travel, but on the flip side, probably one of the safest places to be right now...we count our blessings every day in that regard.

Very nice, looks like our beaches now the tourists have gone back.. In Cornwall they are called Emits as that is the Cornish for ant and they look like a trail of ants when they come in their cars in summer...
