Step Back in Time — A Must-See Experience!
Ministers Island的点评
点评：Our visit to Minister’s Island was one of the highlights of our trip! It takes a bit of planning — you have to visit during low tide, as the only road to the island is actually the ocean floor. We bought our passes online the day before and timed it just right. Some people were walking across, but I wouldn’t recommend it — the island is much bigger than it seems, and you really need a car to explore it fully.
We started with the barn and were truly impressed by how well cared for everything was. You could feel the dedication of the people maintaining the place and taking care of the animals — it felt alive with history and heart.
The highlight, without a doubt, was the main house. It’s like stepping into the early 1900s — beautifully preserved with fully set tables, decorated bedrooms, and details that made it feel like Sir William Van Horne had just stepped out. We had no idea how much he contributed to Canada’s history — a true visionary who helped build the Canadian Pacific Railway, and also an artist and engineer.
We spent about 3.5 hours exploring and honestly could’ve stayed longer, but the tide waits for no one! We had to head back before the road disappeared under water again.
Definitely worth the visit — just make sure to plan ahead and arrive early.

翻译：部长岛之旅是我们此行的亮点之一！这需要一点时间规划——你必须在退潮时前往，因为通往岛屿的唯一道路实际上是海底。我们前一天在网上买了通票，时间安排得恰到好处。有些人会步行过去，但我不建议这样做——这座岛比看起来要大得多，你真的需要开车才能完全探索。
我们从谷仓开始，一切都被精心照料得如此周到，这给我们留下了深刻的印象。你能感受到维护这里和照顾动物的人们的奉献精神——它充满了历史感和人文气息。
毫无疑问，最精彩的是主屋。置身其中，仿佛置身于20世纪初——保存完好，餐桌摆放整齐，卧室装饰精美，细节之处让人仿佛置身于威廉·范·霍恩爵士刚刚走出家门。我们之前并不知道他对加拿大历史做出了多大的贡献——他是一位真正的远见卓识者，参与修建了加拿大太平洋铁路，同时也是一位艺术家和工程师。
我们花了大约3.5个小时探索，说实话，本来可以待更久，但潮水不等人！我们不得不在路再次被水淹没之前返回。
绝对值得一游——但一定要提前计划，早点到。
