点评:The Mayflower II is a full-scale reproduction of the ship that carried the Pilgrims to Plymouth in September, 1620. 102 passengers of all ages and temperaments, and their livestock, sailed across the Atlantic in a cramped space midships on the Tween Deck. The voyage took 66 days, and they arrived at the northern tip end of Cape Cod in November 1620. Winter was coming shortly and their supplies were dwindling. The overall length of the Mayflower was just 106 feet, and the width measured on the Main Deck was only 84 feet. As I stood in those spaces, I tried to imagine what this trip must have been like. Their dedication to their ideals had to be strong in order for them, especially the women, to undertake this journey.
The two views of the Gun Room are taken in different directions to capture the length of the ship. At the entrance there is a interactive passenger display. You decide which passenger you want to be and follow their trip around the ship. I recommend to take your children. This is a very realistic reproduction, and they can try to imagine what life might have been like for a child aboard this ship.
翻译:“五月花二号”是1620年9月载着清教徒前往普利茅斯的那艘船的完整复制品。102名乘客,年龄和性格各异,以及他们的牲畜,挤在船体中部狭窄的“中间甲板”上,横渡大西洋。航程历时66天,他们于1620年11月抵达科德角北端。冬季即将来临,他们的补给也日渐减少。“五月花号”全长仅106英尺,主甲板的宽度也只有84英尺。当我站在这些狭小的空间里,我试图想象这段旅程究竟是怎样的。他们对理想的坚定信念,尤其是对女性而言,足以让他们踏上这段旅程。
炮室的两个视角分别从不同的方向拍摄,展现了船身的长度。入口处设有一个互动式乘客展示区。您可以选择扮演哪位乘客,跟随他们的脚步环游船身。我建议您带孩子来参观。这是一个非常逼真的复制品,他们可以试着想象一个孩子在这艘船上的生活会是什么样子。
