Q:
We'll be going there in July, and I know it'll be hot. The site says you can bring your own food and eat in their picnic area. Is there any shade in the picnic area? Does their snack bar have a seating area? I'm worried about overheating, so wondering if there are any places to cool down. Thanks!
A:
The picnic area does have some shade. Definitely bring a hat and some water. I believe there was air in the main building. The entire property is solar operated.
Q:
How do I get there using public transportation?
A:
Hi, Unfortunately Public Transportation does not come this far. Probably Uber may be your best bet. We have heard it is less expensive than a taxi....
