点评:I’ve been to excursions and entertainment with pirates interacting with children and adults. This particular event did not meet my expectations at all. The video currently shown on their website isn’t anything like we experienced. Once we were all on board and began moving out, rather than having a lengthy and somewhat comical explanation about the safety use of life jackets and such, they should’ve just kept it brief and simple because it’s the adults that deal with it, not the kids. After that, we were moving along the water and basically whatever was said, was somewhat a tour explaining the areas and such with only a little bit of fun with the children and pirate. There really was one pirate and one captain and I think an assistant somewhere else. Another game was this huge treasure map, painted on the floor of the ship, and the pirate had children find locations. What irritated a lot of us is the fact that there was one child, probably 10 or 11 years old, that kept jumping in loudly speaking comments with whatever the pirate was trying to do (a real attention getter!). It really did take a lot of fun away from all other children for their interaction with the pirate and I’m sure the pirate couldn’t do anything about it but the parents could have and should have yet they didn’t. They did have some water fun with the tiny cannon-like pieces mounted on the sides of the ship to squirt water at another pirate who arrived on a nice tiny speedboat just getting each other wet. Then on the way back, they did have the children line up and dig their hand in a small treasure chest to get a bunch of goodies, most of which were probably discarded or thrown out after departing the ship. I know it’s all for fun, but what was in the treasure chest was totally junk. They also had a limbo song/game for anyone who wanted to participate in the fun and that had maybe 10 children participate. Shortly thereafter we were already back at our slip and the buccaneer excursion was over. Considering we were charged $25/head plus taxes, this entertainment is overpriced. If I had paid, maybe 25% less, then I probably wouldn’t have complained so much. Next year I’d rather take my grandson for an hour jet ski rental. Might be a little bit more money but a lot more fun!
翻译:我去过海盗与儿童和成人互动的短途旅行和娱乐活动。这次特殊的活动根本没有达到我的预期。他们网站上当前显示的视频与我们经历的完全不同。一旦我们都上船并开始出发,他们不应该对救生衣等安全使用进行冗长且有点滑稽的解释,而应该保持简短和简单,因为是成年人处理这个问题,而不是孩子们。之后,我们沿着水边移动,基本上无论说什么,都是一次解释这些区域的旅行,只有与孩子们和海盗一起玩的一点乐趣。确实有一名海盗和一名船长,我想还有一名助手在其他地方。另一个游戏是这张巨大的藏宝图,画在船的地板上,海盗让孩子们找到地点。让我们很多人恼火的是,有一个孩子,可能是 10 岁或 11 岁,无论海盗试图做什么,都会大声发表评论(真正引人注目!)。这确实让所有其他孩子与海盗的互动失去了很多乐趣,我确信海盗对此无能为力,但父母可以而且应该这样做,但他们没有。他们确实享受了一些水上乐趣,在船的两侧安装了类似大炮的小部件,向另一名乘坐一艘漂亮的小快艇到达的海盗喷射水,刚刚把彼此弄湿了。然后在回来的路上,他们确实让孩子们排队,把手伸进一个小宝箱里,得到一堆好东西,其中大部分可能在离开船后就被丢弃或扔掉了。我知道这都是为了好玩,但宝箱里的东西完全是垃圾。他们还为任何想参与其中的人准备了一首 Limbo 歌曲/游戏,大约有 10 个孩子参加。此后不久,我们就回到了原来的位置,海盗之旅结束了。考虑到我们每人被收取 25 美元加上税费,这项娱乐活动的价格过高。如果我付了钱,也许少了 25%,那么我可能就不会抱怨那么多了。明年我宁愿带我的孙子去租一小时的摩托艇。可能会多花一点钱,但会更有趣!
