点评:Our New England Fall tour group visited the Yankee Candle Co. in South Deerfield, Massachusetts. This hadn’t been on our original itinerary, and turned out to be really different than I imagined. I was skeptical going in, as I’m allergic to many scented and perfumey things, but found many things to occupy my attention that had nothing to do with candles, air fresheners and the like. I was particularly interested in the Christmas department, which had Christmas and gift items sorted in areas, by subject. There were departments with treats and snacks, crafts, souvenirs, toys & games, clothing, and many other items. I picked up some retro candy and a cute Harry Potter Christmas ornament. There were areas I didn’t make it to, in the time we were given. There was a Ben & Jerry’s, a Build-a-bear, homemade fudge, and I believe there was a pizza place. There were nice restrooms and a ton of checkout stations. Outside the grounds were nice, with grass & flowers & trees, lots of parking, and benches where you could wait for the rest of your party to catch up when you were done. This was a surprise stop that was more enjoyable than expected.
翻译:我们的新英格兰秋季旅游团参观了位于马萨诸塞州南迪尔菲尔德的 Yankee Candle Co.。这不在我们最初的行程中,结果与我想象的完全不同。我进去时持怀疑态度,因为我对许多有香味和香水味的东西过敏,但发现很多东西吸引了我的注意力,它们与蜡烛、空气清新剂等无关。我对圣诞节部门特别感兴趣,那里的圣诞节和礼品按主题分类。有些部门有零食、工艺品、纪念品、玩具和游戏、服装和许多其他物品。我买了一些复古糖果和一个可爱的哈利波特圣诞装饰品。有些区域我没有在规定的时间内到达。那里有 Ben & Jerry’s、Build-a-bear、自制软糖,我相信那里还有一家披萨店。那里有漂亮的洗手间和大量的收银台。外面的场地很漂亮,有草地、鲜花和树木,有很多停车位,还有长椅,你可以在玩完后等着其他人过来。这是一个令人惊喜的停留点,比预想的更令人愉快。
