Olduvai Gorge的点评
点评：I found this an awe inspiring experience and made point to return a second time on a subsequent trip to Tanzania. It hit me in three ways -
First the fact that that as you look over the gorge you realize you are looking at a many million year slice through time and human type species, our ancestors, walked there. At times the space is so quiet and so vast that you can almost feel it.
Second ad you listen to the guides and visit the geological dig site you realize the enormity of the work Leakey and the other geologists undertook, working in the sun with minimal tools and funding for decades before making their discoveries, in explorations that continue to today.
And third. I was enormously impressed by the guides. They were so knowledgeable and clear and patient at answering questions. One of them, Grace, described her Masai background to me and yet she had worked her way through university and is now an archeologist at one of the world’s major sites. I was humbled by her story.
The gorge and museum are absolutely a must do. I found them very affecting. On the first visit we took a car with Grace into the gorge to the see the site while on the second we concentrated on the artifacts in the excellent museum. I could have spent much longer there. I did find I understood it better on my second visit and also found it helpful to ask questions.
Finally, at a more mundane level, the museum has a lovely picnic area in the shade and clean bathrooms. It also had playful mongoose, although I expect they are not always welcome visitors.

翻译：我觉得这是一次令人敬畏的经历，并决定在下次去坦桑尼亚时再来一次。它给我带来了三个方面的震撼 -
首先，当你俯瞰峡谷时，你会意识到你看到的是时间的几百万年片段，人类物种，我们的祖先，曾在那里行走。有时，空间是如此安静和广阔，你几乎可以感觉到它。
其次，当你听导游讲解并参观地质挖掘现场时，你会意识到利基和其他地质学家所从事的工作有多么艰巨，他们在阳光下工作了几十年，使用最少的工具和资金，才有了发现，他们的探索一直持续到今天。
第三，导游给我留下了深刻的印象。他们知识渊博，回答问题时思路清晰，耐心十足。其中一位名叫格蕾丝的导游向我描述了她的马赛背景，但她通过努力读完了大学，现在是世界主要遗址之一的考古学家。她的故事让我感到谦卑。
峡谷和博物馆绝对不容错过。我发现它们非常感人。第一次参观时，我们和 Grace 一起乘车前往峡谷参观遗址，第二次参观时，我们专注于参观优秀博物馆中的文物。我本可以在那里待更长时间。我发现第二次参观时我理解得更清楚，也发现提问很有帮助。
最后，在更平凡的层面上，博物馆有一个阴凉处可爱的野餐区和干净的浴室。它还有顽皮的猫鼬，尽管我认为它们并不总是受欢迎的游客。
