点评:Enjoyed our visit to the observatory. The talk was very interesting and we were lucky to have what we believed was the best order of the three breakout sessions: space rocks, telescope and finally the shop/hot chocolate. Staff were all friendly and knowledgeable.
We were staying in the nearby Kielder campsite and had intended to walk or cycle... thankfully the campsite staff advised us to drive, as it was a lot further/higher than we expected. I did cycle up the next day after I had spotted some mountain bike trails on the way up.
Sadly the weather was not kind and it was a thick blanket of cloud, so no chance to see any stars. I would love to return one day for a different event on a clear night.
I've seen other visitors mentioned a discount voucher for a return visit, but we've not seen this so I don't know how you get those.
翻译:我们很享受这次天文台的参观之旅。讲解内容非常有趣,我们很幸运地按自己心仪的顺序参加了三个分组讨论环节:先是关于太空岩石的介绍,接着是望远镜的相关知识,最后则是参观纪念品商店并品尝热巧克力。工作人员都十分友善且知识渊博。
我们住在附近的Kielder露营地,原本打算步行或骑自行车前往……所幸露营地的工作人员建议我们开车去,因为实际距离比我们预想的要远得多、海拔也高得多。第二天,我在上山途中发现了几条山地自行车道,于是便骑车上去。
可惜天气不佳,天空中乌云密布,根本看不到星星。真希望有一天能在一个晴朗的夜晚再回来参加其他活动。
我注意到其他游客提到有可以用于下次到访的折扣券,但我们没看到这类券,所以不清楚要怎么获得它们。
