点评:I took my adult son, who was visiting from LA, to visit the caverns. Set in the small, beautiful town of Grottoes, the welcome center looks like a small chalet, nestled in the woods, with pretty walkways and several outdoor seating areas. The tour starts with a moderately steep up hill climb to get to the building where the cave route begins. The temp inside the caves is alllllways mid-fifties, so you might want to bring a jacket, and for sure, wear some shoes with treads on the soles. Our tour guides (Eli and Greg) were knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming, and by the time we were done, we’d learned a lot and taken a ton of photos. We came away with a feeling of wonder, and a renewed sense of the enormity of the number of things we don’t know, or think about very often, when it comes to this big beautiful world of ours.
翻译:我带着从洛杉矶来探亲的成年儿子一起去参观那些洞穴。接待中心坐落于美丽的小镇格罗托斯,外观宛如一座小木屋,掩映在树林之中,周围还有漂亮的步行道和好几处户外休憩区。游览之旅始于一段坡度较陡的上坡路,之后才能抵达洞穴入口所在的建筑。洞穴内的温度始终保持在50多华氏度左右,所以建议带上夹克;另外,一定要穿鞋底有纹路的鞋子哦。我们的导游(埃利和格雷格)知识渊博、热情友善。游览结束后,我们学到了很多知识,也拍下了大量照片。这次经历让我们心生敬畏之情,也再次意识到:在这个广阔而美丽的世界上,有太多我们不了解或很少去思考的事物。
