Breitbart reported:
The Associated Press (AP) reported that “enthusiastic visitors ran into Disneyland the moment the gates opened,” eager to return to what parents and children described as their favorite “happy place.”
Hong Kong Disney is not completely reopened yet. City officials are allowing theme parks to operate at half capacity, and visitors are urged to maintain social distancing practices. A few other popular attractions, such as the SeaWorld-like Ocean Park, have reopened under similar restrictions.
