点评:this is a rather unique bridge in the way it operates and is an attraction in its own right. This is where most of the boat traffic comes and goes into town. the hardest part about seeing the bridge lift, is being lucky enough to catch a large freight boat coming or going. sadly, the web site and visitor center that provide ship times are grossly inaccurate and completely undependable.
The good news is , the bridge does lift for common size boats also, like a fishing charter size. it only goes up a partial way but you do get to see it. Your best chance to see one of the big boats come or go is to stay at the south pier inn. Your room will have a front row seat.
The bridge has a walkway for people on both sides that you should do just get a view. and the walk alog the pier to the light house is worth wile also.
We were lucky enough on our last day here to catch a major oar tanker boat come through, it was a sight to see.
翻译:这座桥的运作方式相当独特,本身就是一处值得一看的景点。大多数船只都是通过这里进出镇子的。要亲眼目睹桥梁升起的过程,最难的一点就是得运气够好,能赶上大型货船经过。遗憾的是,提供船只通行时间信息的网站和游客中心的数据极其不准确,完全不可信。
好消息是,这种桥也会为尺寸一般的船只升起,比如那些用于钓鱼包船的船只。虽然只能上升到一半的高度,但确实能看到船身。要想看到大型船只进出,最好的办法就是住在南码头旅馆,从房间里就能获得“前排观景位”。
大桥两侧都设有行人通道,走一走就能欣赏到美景。沿着码头走到灯塔的那段路程也同样值得一走。
我们在离开的最后一天很幸运地看到了一艘大型油轮通过,那真是一番壮观的景象。
