Correction

During this Spring Festival, I didn’t do anything special. If I should say anything I want to say the only thing I did was go to Disney Park with my friend who visited me from Ningbo. This time may have been her only chance to go there, so she spent about five hours in a line to ride a popular attraction. At that time, I just sat in a restaurant and ate a cake and drunk a soft drink, then I went to an attraction which I didn’t need to stand in line for a long time.
