Speaking exercise

Last weekend, the weather is very good. There is a lot of people at the park. Because these days the weather is very good so people will think if you stay at home, it’s a pity so you should enjoy the day. Disneyland is not open. I want to let my colleague go because he recently has a girlfriend. But, he told me that it’s not open.

Last year, some people said it’s 不合理 so maybe this year they allow. Actually, we spend a lot in Disneyland, the season tickets, food and transport is expensive.
