点评:I live in North Jersey and was searching for an aquarium to bring my daughter to. I wanted to avoid SeaLife because I try to avoid going to American Dream, so that's when I found Woodbridge. It was close enough of a drive and had good enough reviews. I read that it was small, but sometimes small is good - especially with kids. They were not joking. The aquarium is actually located inside Woodbridge Center Mall. Tickets are $19.99 for adults but if you purchase them online, you can get 25% off - making it $15.
I'm not sure if I'd really call this an aquarium but more of a space with several giant fish tanks of fish, and some small sharks. There was a shallow water area with one lobster, which I suspect they buy/replace from the local supermarket. They also have some random animals, like goats, pigs, chickens, birds, snakes - things you wonder why they would be at an aquarium. I guess since it's technically also a 'Wildlife' center - but it's probably because they couldn't get enough marine life. All the animals look really sad - even the fish. You can purchase food to feed the fish, and I have a feeling that's the only time they get fed because once you go near the tank, they think you're about to feed them and they all clamor and crowd towards you. Needless to say, my daughter was probably traumatized by that experience because I was pretty creeped out by it too (lol). We got through the entire "aquarium" within half an hour.
You're better off saving your money for a different activity.
翻译:我住在新泽西州北部,想找个水族馆带女儿去。我不想去SeaLife,因为我尽量避免去American Dream购物中心,所以就找到了伍德布里奇水族馆。开车过去不算太远,而且评价也不错。我听说它比较小,但有时候小反而更好——尤其是带孩子去的时候。果然名不虚传。水族馆实际上就位于伍德布里奇购物中心里面。成人票价是19.99美元,但如果在网上购票,可以享受25%的折扣,也就是15美元。
我不太确定这算不算水族馆,更像是一个摆放着几个巨型鱼缸和一些小鲨鱼的地方。里面有个浅水区,养着一只龙虾,我怀疑他们是从当地超市进货/更换的。他们还养了一些其他动物,比如山羊、猪、鸡、鸟、蛇——你会纳闷为什么水族馆里会有这些东西。我猜是因为它名义上也是个“野生动物”中心——但很可能是因为他们没能找到足够的海洋生物。所有动物看起来都很可怜——就连鱼也不例外。你可以买鱼食喂鱼,我感觉它们只有在你靠近鱼缸的时候才会被喂食,因为一旦你靠近鱼缸,它们就会以为你要喂它们,然后全都蜂拥而至。不用说,我女儿可能被吓到了,因为我自己也觉得有点毛骨悚然(哈哈)。我们半小时就逛完了整个“水族馆”。
你最好把钱省下来,去做点别的。
