点评:We had some free time in Forks, found John's Beachcoming Museum and decided to give it a go. What an unexpected surprise! Please do not call this junk - everything in the museum was collected by John and his friends over the past 4 decades. The amount of items he amassed was staggering; imagine if all of these things were just left on the beaches! It is clear that this was his lifelong passion, and the way he displayed the items in the museum was well thought-out, plus a good sense of humor!
He has a list of special items that are marked by a pink star. Other remarkable things include a special shrine for items washed ashore after the Japanese Tsunami, walls of Japanese whiskey and sake bottles, beautiful collection of glass buoys, ceilings' full of crab bait plastic containers, different collections of container spills, and thousands and thousands of plastic buoys of all sizes.
John is there to greet you and happy to show you around and share stories with you. Well-worth the $5 admission price ($2 for youth). it will open your eyes and your mind.
翻译:我们在福克斯闲暇时发现了约翰的海滩博物馆,决定去看看。真是意外的惊喜!千万别说是垃圾——博物馆里的所有东西都是约翰和他的朋友们在过去40年里收集的。他收集的藏品数量惊人;想象一下,如果这些东西都留在沙滩上会是什么样!显然,这是他毕生的热情所在,他在博物馆里展示藏品的方式也经过深思熟虑,而且很有幽默感!
他列出了一份特别的藏品清单,上面标有一颗粉色的星号。其他值得一提的还包括一个专门用于纪念日本海啸后被冲上岸的物品的神龛、墙上挂满了日本威士忌和清酒瓶的日本酒瓶、精美的玻璃浮标收藏、摆满蟹饵塑料容器的天花板、各种容器泄漏物,以及成千上万个大小不一的塑料浮标。
约翰会热情地迎接你,带你参观,分享你的故事。5美元的门票(青少年2美元)绝对物超所值。它将打开你的眼界和思维。
