点评:An excellent museam. Doesn't take long to look round but is full of interest bit of history. It is split across two rooms one for natural history/geography of the local area and one for human history.
We spend most time in the natural history side. I found the rocks and how Scotland was formed through I've ages and volcano interesting. The kids enjoyed the hands on table with skulls, frogs, bat and seal skins to hold and look at. It also made up for the fact we wouldn't let them touch a decomposing seal they found on the beach the day before. There were various questions on the table to help with they thinking. The two quizzes were great. Again the question were ideal and got them thinking and the dinosaur hunt made sure they looked in every display.
The gentleman who was working there was fantastic. He answered the children's questions, showed us the meeting room and let them ring the ships bell. He was brilliant and made our day even better.
There is a little shop which is has gemstones, fossil, jewellery and local information guides and books. Again the gentleman was very patient with my indecisive children which they parted with their pocket money.
At £5 for adults and children free it is well worth a visit and we all left knowing more.
翻译:很棒的博物馆。参观时间不长,却充满了有趣的历史。博物馆分为两个展厅,一个展示当地自然历史/地理,另一个展示人类历史。
我们大部分时间都待在自然历史展区。我发现岩石、苏格兰的形成过程以及火山都很有趣。孩子们喜欢把头骨、青蛙、蝙蝠和海豹皮放在桌子上,让他们亲手拿着玩。这也弥补了我们前一天在海滩上发现的一只正在腐烂的海豹,不让他们碰的遗憾。桌子上有各种各样的问题帮助他们思考。两次测验都很棒。问题也很贴切,激发了孩子们的思考,恐龙寻宝活动确保孩子们仔细查看了每一个展品。
在那里工作的那位先生非常棒。他回答了孩子们的问题,带我们参观了会议室,还让他们敲响了船钟。他非常出色,让我们的一天更加愉快。
这里有一家小店,出售宝石、化石、珠宝以及当地信息指南和书籍。这位先生对我那些犹豫不决的孩子们非常耐心,他们给了我一些零花钱。成人票价5英镑,儿童免费,非常值得一游,我们离开时都学到了很多东西。
