点评:On Saturday, September 14, 2024, we were in Punta Gorda, Florida, for several points of interest. We started with Veterans Park. This park contains a scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, “The Wall.” There are several other presentations in the park including a Purple Heart presentation, and a Fountain of Freedom as well as a beautiful mural of a Curtiss P-40 Warhawk. Well worth the stop. Parking is free and ample. Plan on a 45 minutes to an hour.
Our second stop was the Military Heritage Museum. This was another super visit. Our Garmin GPS and Google Maps had a bit of a time getting us to the entrance for free parking. The Military Heritage Museum covers A LOT OF EVENTS in our Country’s history. Most of the docents were absolutely super. You need to check their homepage. Their building’s ownership has changed and they are in limbo for remaining at their current location. Plan on several hours.
Our last stop was Fishermen’s Village. First, we saw no one fishing so….. Just curious. A tourist trap, and nicely done. Parking is free and a bit limited. The area is clean, neat, well kept up, and “light” in its presentation. We cruised through several stores and enjoyed just cruising around. We were kind of surprised as we walked away with a few purchases. A few stores were in rehab and closed. However, most were open. There are a few eating spots there and individuals who appeared to be locals said they were super spots to eat. We did not partake. There were tour boats you could book a ride on. We did not see a ticket booth or window – we did not look them either.
We were on the road for these tours about eight hours total and then joined our Daughter and Son-in-Law for the rest of the day.
Thanks,
Rex
翻译:2024 年 9 月 14 日星期六,我们在佛罗里达州的蓬塔戈尔达参观了几个景点。我们从退伍军人公园开始。这个公园里有一座越南退伍军人纪念碑“The Wall”的比例复制品。公园里还有其他几个展览,包括紫心勋章展览、自由喷泉以及一幅美丽的柯蒂斯 P-40 战鹰壁画。非常值得一游。停车免费,车位充足。计划 45 分钟到一个小时。
我们的第二站是军事遗产博物馆。这是又一次超级之旅。我们的 Garmin GPS 和谷歌地图花了点时间才把我们带到免费停车的入口。军事遗产博物馆涵盖了我们国家历史上的许多事件。大多数讲解员都非常棒。你需要查看他们的主页。他们的建筑所有权已经发生变化,他们无法继续留在目前的位置。计划几个小时。
我们的最后一站是渔人村。首先,我们没看到有人在钓鱼,所以……只是好奇。一个旅游陷阱,做得很好。停车是免费的,但有点有限。该地区干净、整洁、维护良好,而且“轻松”地呈现。我们逛了几家商店,享受了逛逛的乐趣。我们有点惊讶,因为我们买了一些东西。几家商店正在整修并关闭。然而,大多数商店都开着。那里有几个吃饭的地方,看起来像当地人的人说它们是吃饭的好地方。我们没有参加。有游船可以预订。我们没有看到售票亭或窗口——我们也没有看它们。
我们在路上总共花了大约八个小时进行这些旅行,然后和我们的女儿和女婿一起度过了剩下的一天。
谢谢,
雷克斯
