The Look of Lockdown

It’s early tourist season in Italy.  As you can see, there are lots of tour groups here in Parma.  🙂  Just count all the people. Oh, wait, there’s isn’t anyone here.

Restaurants are not allowed to be open after 5:30PM.  Grocery stores now allow only 10 people at a time in the shop.  Trains are monitored by police.  The President issued a motto “I stay home” and you see it posted everywhere.  Business is dead.  Italy may not recover.

But the weather is perfect.  So we walk.
