(lǚxínɡtuán) 

A: Jiuzhaigou National Park is opening up to visitors again. I better hurry up and make some plans.

九寨沟公园又恢复对外开放了。我得赶紧计划一下了。

(jiǔzhàiɡōu ɡōnɡyuán yòu huīfù duìwài kāifànɡ le. wǒ děi ɡǎnjǐn jìhuá yīxià le.) 

B: I saw the news report that they are limiting travel to 5,000 people a day and that they will only be allowing tourists in tour groups. 

我看新闻里说每天限量接待五千人,而且只接待旅行团的团队游客。

(wǒ kàn xīnwénlǐ shuō měitiān xiànliànɡ jiēdài wǔqiānrén, érqiě zhǐ jiēdài lǚxínɡtuán de tuánduì yóukè.)

A: So it's like that? I really don't want to go with a tour group. I want to drive around by myself and with my family.

这样？我可不想跟旅行团旅游。我想自驾和家里人一起去玩呢。

(zhèyànɡ? wǒ kěbùxiǎnɡ ɡēn lǚxínɡtuán lǚyóu. wǒxiǎnɡ zìjià hé jiālǐrén yīqǐ qùwán ne.)

B: Then you probably will have to wait. They said they won't host individual travelers. 

那可能要再等等了。目前说是不接待散客。

(nà kěnénɡ yào zàiděnɡděnɡ le. mùqián shuōshì bù jiēdài sǎnkè.)

A: Yes, it seems like I can only wait.

说得没错,看来我也只能等等了。

(shuōdé méicuò, kànlái wǒyě zhǐnénɡ děnɡděnɡ le.)
