老公,去年我们把四大佛山都逛了一圈,今年的自驾游准备去哪儿啊?

Hubby, last year we took a trip to each of the 4 great Buddhist mountains. Where are we planning to go on our road-trip this year?
去年看了佛教名山,今年要不去感受一下道教,比如湖北的武当山,四大道教名山之首。

Last year we saw the famous Buddhist mountains. How about this year we experience a bit of Taoism? For example, Wudang Mountain in Hubei; the principle mountain of the four Taoist mountains.
什么道教名山,没意思。我想去迪斯尼。
shénme Dàojiào míngshān ,méi yìsi 。wǒ xiǎng qù Dísīní 。
Famous Taoist mountains? That's so boring. I want to go to Disneyland.
上海的迪斯尼还没造好呢。去香港的话,那消费可高了。武当山很有意思的,那可是我做梦都想去的地方。
Shànghǎi de Dísīní hái méi zào hǎo ne 。qù Xiānggǎng dehuà ,nà xiāofèi kě gāo le 。Wǔdāngshān hěn yǒu yìsi de ,nà kě shì wǒ zuòmèng dōu xiǎng qù de dìfang 。
Shanghai's Disneyland hasn't finished construction yet. If we go to the Hong Kong Disneyland, the cost will be really high. Wudang mountain is really interesting. It's a place I've always dreamed of going to.
