点评:We did a lot of research before going and were VERY glad we did.
Pros:
Lots of people dressed in period-appropriate outfits.
Hands-on experience
Authentic feel to the battle, especially with the canons, riffles, and horses.
Cons:
Online planning information is lacking from any official source. It is very hard to know what to bring or what to expect if you are new to this experience.
Logistics were lacking. Limited shade, limited food (long lines) - bring all that you might need plus more.
Tips for someone that wants to do this in the future:
1. Bring a chair & shade (I recommend a chair with an umbrella). During the battle, the first 3 rows of chairs will be asked to drop your umbrella. So those in the back can see. Take your chair and set-up sooner rather than later.
2. Bring a cooler with food and drinks.
3. Bring CASH!!!
4. Dress for being in the sun. (neck fans were our friend)
5. Be prepared to walk in a field and do lots of walking (yes you can use a wagon - wish I would have done that)
Overall, it was a very good experience and I'm happy we went. I recommend.
翻译:我们在去之前做了很多研究,很高兴我们做到了。
优点:
很多人穿着适合那个时代的服装。
亲身体验
真实的战斗感觉,尤其是大炮、步枪和马匹。
缺点:
任何官方来源都缺乏在线规划信息。如果您不熟悉这种体验,则很难知道要带什么或期待什么。
后勤缺乏。有限的阴影,有限的食物(排长队)——带上你可能需要的一切,再加上更多。
给将来想这样做的人的提示:
1.带一把椅子和遮阳伞(我推荐一把带伞的椅子)。战斗中,前3排的椅子会被要求放下雨伞。这样后面的人就可以看到了。尽快就座并进行设置。
2. 带上食物和饮料的冷却器。
3. 带上现金!!!
4. 穿着适合晒太阳的衣服。 (颈扇是我们的朋友)
5. 准备好在田野里走很多路(是的,你可以坐马车——希望我能那样做)
总的来说,这是一次非常好的体验,我很高兴我们去了。我建议。
