点评:This was our second visit here as our first one was over 10 years ago and we drove in from Sioux Falls. If you are looking for a game to play, just count the number of billboards for them as we found at least fifty of them and it can be sneaky as sometimes there will be multiple in the same area.
It is a big place and if you are there just to sightsee, it’s fine but if you need a particular item, it can be frustrating as there are multiple stores/attractions and it is hard to figure out where to go as looks like a bunch of random things thrown together. I needed some sunglasses and after trying a couple of places and getting frustrated, I finally asked and got pointed in the right direction.
We wanted to have a treat/snack, so my wife and I each got a slice of pie, and my daughter got two scoops of ice cream, and it cost over $30, so it was hardly a good deal. There are plenty of billboards bragging about their five-cent coffee, but they serve it in small cups, and it was mediocre at best so if they charged regular prices, I doubt many would ever ask for seconds. Because we went during Spring Break and there were very few options, we came back for breakfast. The hotcakes were good, but simple things like adding a sausage patty was another $7.
Last but not least, my wife tripped and fell in the parking lot as it is in poor condition and there are cracks everywhere. It is clear it has been a long time since they have done anything and considering they get two million visitors a year and have plenty of money flowing in, that is unacceptable and it’s just a lawsuit waiting to happen. Thankfully, she didn’t have to see a doctor, but she cut up her leg pretty good. I think the next time we are in the area we will just keep driving.
翻译:这是我们第二次来这里,第一次来是在十多年前,当时我们从苏福尔斯开车过来。如果你想找个游戏玩玩,那就数数广告牌吧,我们至少找到了五十个,而且这游戏挺隐蔽的,因为有时候同一区域会有好几个。
这里地方很大,如果你只是来观光,那还好;但如果你需要买特定的东西,那就有点麻烦了,因为商店和景点太多,看起来杂乱无章,很难找到方向。我需要一副太阳镜,找了好几家店都没找到,最后只好问了店员,才有人指路。
我们想吃点东西,我和妻子一人买了一块派,女儿买了两个冰淇淋球,结果花了三十多美元,实在是不划算。到处都是广告牌吹嘘他们五美分一杯的咖啡,但他们用的杯子很小,而且味道最多只能算一般。如果按正常价格卖,估计没多少人会再来一杯。因为我们是春假期间去的,选择不多,所以就回来吃早餐。煎饼还不错,但加个香肠饼这种简单的配料都要额外加7美元。
最后,也是最糟糕的是,我妻子在停车场绊倒了,因为停车场状况很差,到处都是裂缝。显然他们很久没维护了,考虑到他们每年接待两百万游客,收入颇丰,这种情况实在令人无法接受,迟早会惹上官司。谢天谢地,她不用去看医生,但腿擦伤得不轻。我想下次我们再来这附近的时候,还是开车走吧。
