点评:While the evening was fun for our family of five, Steve was quite disorganized. He was missing two paddles and our tour had to wait 50 minutes for someone to deliver them. (We were going to cancel if an hour had gone by and asked for a refund). While we were waiting, he was chatting about stuff but still hadn't fully loaded up the kayaks with supplies so we got off to an even later start. As a result of the late start (7:45pm vs 6:30pm start time), we didn't get to kayak into the small cove but heard the story of it while paddling. Kayaking to the island was fun and Steve set up the campfire and small table fine, but there were only two chairs and a blanket to sit on. Steve forgot the chocolate for the smores so another miss on his behalf. When we said we'd be ready to leave in 20 minutes, Steve spent the next half hour figuring out how to put these new lights on each kayak (he had just purchased them and they needed to be peeled and velcro'ed to the kayaks) while we cleaned up the site and put the food and chairs away. If we hadn't helped with the gear, it would have been even later. The evening could have been organized a lot better and Steve should have had everything ready to go when we were ready. Heading back to the dock from the island was a little scary since we are beginner kayakers and it was quite dark. Steve did not paddle in the rear to make sure everyone was together and one kayak didn't have a light that worked. It made me nervous. He said if a boat was coming we should wave our hands. Our family did have a good time and a memorable evening, and Steve is a nice guy, but it wasn't quite the experience Steve told us it would be and quite expensive compared to similar experiences with other outfitters. We got back to the launch at 10:35pm.
翻译:虽然我们一家五口晚上玩得很开心,但史蒂夫却很没条理。他缺了两支桨,我们等了50分钟才有人送来。(我们本来打算如果超过一个小时就取消行程,然后要求退款)。等的时候,他一直在聊着,但皮划艇上还没装满补给品,所以我们出发得更晚了。由于出发时间晚(晚上7:45,而不是晚上6:30),我们没能划皮划艇去那个小海湾,不过在划桨的时候听了故事。划皮划艇去岛上很有趣,史蒂夫搭好了篝火和小桌子,但只有两把椅子和一条毯子可以坐。史蒂夫忘了带烤棉花糖用的巧克力,这又一次让他失望了。当我们说20分钟后准备出发时,史蒂夫花了接下来的半个小时研究如何把这些新灯装到每艘皮划艇上(他刚买的,需要撕下来用尼龙搭扣粘在皮划艇上),而我们则清理场地,收拾食物和椅子。如果不是我们帮忙准备装备,时间会更晚。这个夜晚本来可以安排得更好,史蒂夫应该在我们准备好的时候就把一切准备就绪。从岛上返回码头的路上有点害怕,因为我们是皮划艇初学者,而且天很黑。史蒂夫没有在船尾划桨,确保大家都在一起,而且有一艘皮划艇的灯坏了。这让我很紧张。他说如果有船过来,我们应该挥挥手。我们一家确实度过了一个愉快的夜晚,一个难忘的夜晚,史蒂夫人也很好,但这次体验并不像史蒂夫说的那么好,而且与其他户外用品店的类似体验相比,价格也相当昂贵。我们于晚上 10:35 回到发射场。
