A trip to Hong Kong
Hi, Millie,
How are you? We haven't seen each other since last week. I miss you so much! My parents and I have been in Hong Kong for two days. We're having a fantastic time here. Today we spent the whole day at Disneyland.
We got to the park by underground. First, we had fun on Space Mountain -- an indoor roller coaster in the dark. It moved at high speed and was really exacting! We were screaming and laughing through the ride.
Next, we hurried to a restaurant to have a quick meal. On the way, we met some Disney cartoon characters, such as Snow White and Mickey Mouse. They were so cute.
Everybody got excited when a parade of Disney characters began later in the afternoon. It was the best part of the day. I ran after them and couldn't stop taking photos. After the parade, we watched a 4-D film. It was like magic. We could even smell the apple pie and feel the wind.
Then we did some shopping. I bought a couple of key rings for classmates. I'm sure you'll love them.
At the end of the day, we watched the fireworks in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle. The castle looked bright and beautiful under the fireworks.
I know you've gone to Hainan. Hope you've enjoyed yourself there!
See you soon.
Yours,
Kitty
