It is a simple thing: when a <strong>number goes up<\/strong>, it means <strong>lots of things<\/strong> are happening. It means <strong>exciting changes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Think about <strong>Germany\u2019s<\/strong> <strong>52,800 visitors<\/strong> again.

It is a <strong>giant leap<\/strong>. It means the area had to get ready for <strong>double<\/strong> the people! They needed <strong>double<\/strong> the taxi drivers. They needed <strong>double<\/strong> the hotel staff. This is why it is a <strong>powerful jump<\/strong>. It shows they are <strong>super fast<\/strong> at getting ready for <strong>new visitors<\/strong>. They had to <strong>work very hard<\/strong> and <strong>very quickly<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>47.5%<\/strong> (Italy): This is <strong>almost half<\/strong> more. Think of a restaurant.

That is a <strong>huge amount<\/strong> of extra cleaning they must do. This is why <strong>47.5%<\/strong> is such a <strong>big, happy number<\/strong> for <strong>Italy<\/strong>.
