Writing exercise

I have been to the SH Disney Park last Friday. Due to the restriction policy for pandemic, visitors are required to wear masks and keep distancing, and the maximum visitors’ capacity is limited to 20% of common conditions as well. The SH Disney park is not so crowded as before. It is very comfortable that people do not have to stick with strangers in such hot weather. Furthermore, different families or groups of people are not allowed to sit together considering the epidemic prevention needs.

Of course, some of the most popular rides still have to wait for 30-60 minutes. Soaring over the Horizon is one of my favorite, people sit on a seat and are raised in front of a 4D movie or ball dome movie screen and seem like flight around the world. TRON and Rex’s Racer are both thrilling and crazy rides. TRON, the speed of which is about 90KM/h, people ride a motor cycle and run along an ellipse trace, and there are many slope transformations of the trace. Rex’s and Racer is a ride which lift visitor to a very high location and then drop suddenly.

The reopening of SH Disney Park likes a light in the recent dark times, and it gave people hope and inspiration. Each visitor can find their own magic day in it.
