点评:I had not visited the zoo for decades, literally, end enjoyed a few hours here. It's quite hard work as you really have to drive and get in and out of the car a few times, and the signage is very bad. But it's worth it to see the animals. The Galapagos tortoises were especially fun.
I finished up in the cafe for lunch. It has a terrific view over an island with a lot of animals and it as very quiet, with few customers. But, my lunch never appeared. It seems someone had simply forgotten it. I had specifically asked if my choice would be fairly quick, as I had to get a hire car back to the airport by a certain time, and the counter assistant asked the chef in front of me, so it's not like they didn't know! Anyway, when I went in to ask where my food was, they said they could make it then, but I didn't have time. I had to pick up a sandwich from a servo on the way to the airport! They did refund the cost.
So the lesson is, it's best to check that your food is being prepared!
I'm not letting the cafe experience affect my overall review score.
翻译:我真的有几十年没去过动物园了,这次在这里度过了几个愉快的小时。不过参观过程相当费体力——得反复开车、上下车,而且指示牌也极其糟糕。但能看到那些动物,一切都是值得的。其中的加拉帕戈斯象龟尤其有趣。
最后我在咖啡馆吃了午饭。那里可以俯瞰一个栖息着众多动物的岛屿,环境十分安静,顾客也很少。然而,我的午餐始终没上来。看来是有人完全把它给忘了。我特意询问过我的餐点能否尽快做好,因为我必须在规定时间前租一辆车送回机场。当时收银员还询问了我前面那位顾客的意见,可见他们其实是知情的!不过后来我去询问餐点情况时发现,他们虽说可以立刻制作,但我已经没时间了。最后我只能在去机场的路上从便利店买了个三明治!不过他们还是把费用退还给了我。
所以教训就是:最好确认一下自己的餐点是否正在制作中!我不会让咖啡馆的体验影响我的整体评分。
