#1 Tour groups are delaying cancelling trips that everyone knows will be cancelled so they don't have to refund the 20-40% deposits. Can't say as I can blame them. So so far, the impact on tourism (mid-long term) still looks minor on paper, but a lot of it is tourists and tour companies playing 'chicken' in efforts to minimize deposit losses.

#2 Did we tell the Marines at the embassy that THIS time, they damn well better blow away anybody climbing the walls?
