An imitation volcano in a hotel and water park's swimming pool developed delusions of grandeur, forcing guests to flee to the parking lot in their bare feet and swimsuits.
位于美国明尼苏达州德卢斯市的一家饭店为了招揽游客而专门在店内的游泳池里放置了一座仿真火山,但就在几天前它却突然“假戏真做”,“壮观”的火山“喷发”场面吓得当时正在游泳的客人们纷纷身着泳装赤脚跑到了停车场内。
The 20-foot-tall plastic volcano at the Edgewater Hotel and Waterpark started belching black smoke and shooting flames Thursday. The hotel manager said a malfunctioning internal speaker ignited the fire.
据美联社3月31日报道,位于艾吉沃特饭店内的这座高达20英尺的塑料假火山是在3月29日这天开始向外冒黑烟且不停喷射火焰的。这家附带水上公园的饭店的管理者表示,本次火灾的起因是由于假火山内部的一个扬声器出现了故障。
Firefighters helped put out the fire, but not before part of the volcano melted.
在闻讯赶来的消防队员的帮助下,饭店工作人员最终将火势扑灭,但此时该火山的一部分已经被烧得熔化了。
The displaced swimmers were given blankets and directed to the nearby Perkins and Black Woods restaurants. Once guests were allowed back into their rooms, the staff treated them to in-room ice cream Thursday night.
饭店方面后来向那些跑出来的游泳者提供了毛毯,并将他们带到了附近的一家餐厅里。而在这些客人于当天晚上被允许返回自己所住的房间后,饭店工作人员又专门给他们送来了冰淇淋。
The Edgewater reopened in January 2006 after a 14-month, $20 million remodeling project.
艾吉沃特饭店是在经过了一次为期14个月且耗资达2000万美元的重建工程后于2006年1月重新开业的。
