点评:My wife and I, and two long-time friends, all of us senior citizens, visited the Skytree and it was a ‘never again’ sort of experience. We had to queue for quite a while to get tickets, and then the first available slot was over an hour away. We went for something to eat, and then got into the queue for our time slot. Again, another long queue before you get absolutely squashed into one of the lifts. Already this isn’t a pleasant experience. Once we got out of the lift, we joined the throngs of people already up in the observation deck trying to get to one of the windows to view the city by night. Each time we moved from one position we then had to wait to get into another place to see another part of the city – not fun by any stretch of the imagination. The worst part of the experience was queueing for the lifts to get out of the place. This took forever, and gives you lots of time to reflect on what would happen in the event of a fire – it actually doesn’t bear think about. It took us over an hour to get on a lift from when we started queuing – so much pushing and shoving, and all too claustrophobic! Like I’ve stated, we would never want to do this again, and had we known what it was like we would have given it a miss – seriously not recommended, especially if you don’t like being squashed in for long periods of time with other humans.
翻译:我和妻子,还有两位老朋友(我们都是老年人)一起去了晴空塔,那是一种“再也不会再来了”的经历。我们排了好一会儿队才买到票,而且第一个空位还要一个多小时才能到。我们去吃了点东西,然后又去排队等我们想去的那个时间段。又是一阵长队,最后才挤进电梯。这已经不是什么愉快的经历了。一出电梯,我们就加入了已经在观景台上排队的人群,想挤到窗边欣赏夜景。每次我们从一个位置移动,就得等到另一个位置才能看到城市的另一面——真是一点也不好玩。最糟糕的是排队等电梯离开。这花了很长时间,让你有充足的时间去思考一旦发生火灾该怎么办——这真的不值得去想。从排队到上电梯,我们等了一个多小时才上车——推推搡搡,简直让人窒息!就像我说的,我们再也不想坐电梯了,如果早知道会是什么感觉,我们肯定不会坐——真的不推荐,尤其是如果你不喜欢和其他人长时间挤在一起的话。
