点评:We made Eureka our home base while visiting the Redwoods. What a perfect choice. We were able to visit several parks all within an hour north or south of Eureka. Our timing also coincided with Eureka's Music Fest weekend. Multiple ticket options and we purchased for one evening, where you could go to multiple venues with different artists performing back to back. We picked 2 venues next door to each other and just went back and forth. Food trucks on the streets, but we had had delicious crab cakes and dinner at Jacks earlier. Both locations had bars set up. Lots of folks dancing and they were amazing to watch. The next day after hiking, we went on the cocktail cruise around the bay. Can't beat it for $15pp, plus the cost of a drink. Afterwards, had a lovely seafood dinner at Sea Grill. That evening there was a band performing outdoors in the square and all the area shops were open late. We found out about the Music Fest when I ran into problems finding a hotel. So do book early if going at that time. On our way south of Eureka, we went to the Sequoia Zoo. It's a nice little rescue zoo, but also has an arial walkway through the Redwoods, which was something different. Again, can't go wrong at $22pp. We hiked multiple trails at different parks. All were absolutely amazing and breathtaking. The paths were all easy, which made it nice for us to take our time and really enjoy our surroundings.
翻译:我们把尤里卡作为游览红杉林的基地。这真是个完美的选择!我们可以在一小时内游览尤里卡以北或以南的几个公园。而且,我们去的时间也恰逢尤里卡的音乐节周末。门票种类繁多,我们只买了一个晚上的票,可以去多个场地,欣赏不同的艺术家连续表演。我们选择了两个相邻的场地,然后来回走。街上有很多流动餐车,但我们之前在杰克餐厅吃过美味的蟹饼和晚餐。这两个地方都设有酒吧。很多人在跳舞,看着他们真是太棒了。第二天徒步旅行后,我们参加了海湾鸡尾酒巡游。每人15美元,外加一杯饮料的费用,真是物超所值。之后,我们在Sea Grill吃了一顿美味的海鲜晚餐。那天晚上,广场上有一支乐队在户外表演,而且附近的所有商店都营业到很晚。我在找酒店时遇到了麻烦,才得知音乐节的消息。所以,如果那个时候去的话,一定要提前预订。在从尤里卡往南走的路上,我们去了红杉动物园。这是一家很不错的小型救援动物园,还有一条穿过红杉林的空中步道,很特别。同样,每人22美元的价格绝对不会错。我们在不同的公园徒步了好几条步道。每条步道都美得令人窒息,令人叹为观止。每条步道都很容易走,让我们可以慢慢欣赏周围的景色。
