点评:This was a GREAT way to spend a day. We went to the Museum and got our full package tickets. These included the museum, a paddle-wheeler boat to the island, house tour, and wagon tour of the island. The price was very reasonable; however, they do not offer a senior discount. The paddle-wheeler was a great experience with licensed crew to work the lines and entry/exit platform. The Captain gave an overview of the destination during the 20 minute trip to the island. The Blennerhassett home on the island is a beautiful replica of the original home which burned to the ground years ago. There are a number of gifted volunteers (docents) who give tours. It’s obvious that they are fond of what they do. Our day on the island lasted about four hours (including boat ride to and from the island). If you like history, you’ll like this event. Do a little homework and read up on the Blennerhasset family before you go. It’s very interesting.
翻译:这真是一次很棒的一日游。我们去了博物馆,买了全套票。套票包括博物馆参观、乘明轮船上岛、参观故居以及乘坐马车环岛游览。价格非常合理;不过,他们不提供老年人折扣。明轮船的体验很棒,船员都持有执照,负责操作缆绳和上下船平台。在20分钟的航程中,船长对目的地进行了简要介绍。岛上的布伦纳哈塞特故居是原址的精美复制品,原址多年前被烧毁。有很多热情洋溢的志愿者(讲解员)提供导览服务。显然,他们非常热爱自己的工作。我们在岛上的一天大约持续了四个小时(包括往返岛屿的船程)。如果你喜欢历史,你一定会喜欢这次活动。出发前可以做一些功课,了解一下布伦纳哈塞特家族的历史。他们的故事非常有趣。
