Disappointing, no mango experts giving the lecture!
Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden的点评
点评:Grounds are nice, but on entering their scanners were not working so there was a looooong line to check in for ticket holders at the Mango festival! We had to wait at least 45 minutes in the sun to get in. The food trucks had barely any mango food or drinks. Food was overpriced; 3 tiny tacos ( mystery microscopic meat) for $14. Churros were expensive too. The place was super hot, 94 degrees and there were no bathrooms close by, a few fans and not enough tents or shade seating to eat your food!
The mango lecture was most disappointing. They choose a business person who gave the talk/lecture and he proceeded to advertise his business ( first slide)! And he was talking garbage about Jamaicans and sourcing mangoes from their island; mimicking their accent. Where are the experts who study mangoes: the scientists, botanists, horticulturalists, agricultural scientists, or plant researchers, shame on you, admission was not worth it. This a get rich quick scheme, very disappointing!
翻译:场地不错,但是进去的时候扫描仪坏了,所以芒果节的持票人排了好长的队!我们不得不在烈日下等了至少45分钟才进去。餐车上几乎没有芒果食品和饮料。食物价格过高;3个小玉米饼(神秘的微型肉)要14美元。吉事果也很贵。现场超级热,94华氏度(约34摄氏度),附近没有卫生间,只有几个风扇,没有足够的帐篷或遮阳座位可以吃饭!芒果讲座最令人失望。他们选了一个商人来做讲座/演讲,然后他就去宣传他的生意(第一张幻灯片)!而且他竟然在胡说八道牙买加人和从他们岛上采购芒果;还模仿他们的口音。研究芒果的专家都去哪儿了:科学家、植物学家、园艺家、农业科学家或植物研究人员,真丢人,门票根本不值。这是一个快速致富的骗局,非常令人失望!
