Helicopter Easter Egg Drop

Happy Easter Sunday! This is Mitch Lee. I'm here at City Park. Look at all the people! Are they here for free food and drinks? No. They're here for the helicopter Easter egg drop! In a few minutes, a helicopter will come and drop thousands of Easter eggs on the ground. Inside the eggs, there are prizes or candy. The kids are ready to get the eggs. Everyone looks excited. Let me go talk to some parents.

Hi, why are you here today?
We want to try something different this Easter, and this way I don't need to spend time boiling and coloring eggs.

How about you, sir?
I can't think of any new places in the yard to hide Easter eggs. So, City Park is a great place for my children to have some fun. The whole activity is a new kind of experience for them.

復活節直升機空擲彩蛋

復活節星期日快樂!我是米區．李。我現在在市立公園。看看這人潮!他們是為了免費的食物和飲料來的嗎？不是。他們在這是為了復活節直升機空擲彩蛋!再過幾分鐘，一架直升機將會過來，並投擲上千個復活節彩蛋到地面上。蛋裡面有獎品或是糖果。孩子們準備好要撿蛋了。每個人看起來都很興奮。讓我來跟一些家長聊聊。

嗨，妳今天為什麼會來這裡？
今年復活節我們想要嘗試不一樣的東西，而且如此一來，我就不用花時間煮蛋和彩繪蛋了。

那你呢，先生？
我想不出院子裡有什麼新的地方可以藏復活節彩蛋了。所以，市立公園是能讓我的孩子玩樂的好地方。這整個活動對他們來說是個新的體驗。
