For visitors, Waterton-Glacier Park offers many wonderful things to see and do. Have a picnic or go for a hike - or have a picnic on your hike - and be ready to take lots of pictures. On the lakes, rent a canoe, take a boat tour, go fishing or simply go for a swim.
Whatever activities you choose, amazing views will surround you. For example, a road tour anywhere in the park will pass through gorgeous scenery. Don't miss the drive westward along the Going-to-the- Sun Road. You will never forget the spectacle.
A number of small towns lie within Waterton-Glacier Park or close to it. In these places, you can get a bite to eat, buy gifts or find a place to stay. One must-see is the town of Waterton and its iconic Prince of Wales Hotel. Camping in the park is a very popular activity. Many campsites are available on a first come, first served basis while some need to be r served. If you camp, be sure to keep food locked away at night. Otherwise, you may have an unwanted visit from a bear!
Words cannot adequately describe beautiful Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. You have to see it for youself!

First come, first served. 先到的人就會先被服務
Hello, friends. Welcome back to Info Cloud. There was a great promotion at a shop near my house the other day.
Oh, really?
Yeah. They were giving away a free bag with any purchase over $100.
That does sound good. So did you get one?
No. By the time my turn came, they were sold out.
Oh, that's too bad. I guess the deal was first come, first served.
Yeah. Later, I found out there were only 100 bags available.
But now we have a chance to talk about this phrase.
Its meaning is pretty simple to understand. Customers are served in the order that they come to a shop. This phrase has been in common usage since at least the 19th century.
It's easy to understand, but it might be a bit confusing to use. For example, don't forget to put the word "served" in the past tense. Think about it like this: Those who arrive first are served first.
Yes. And sometimes this phrase is lengthened to: on a first-come, first-served basis.
This restaurant doesn't take reservations. It operates on a first-come, first-served basis.
In this example, first-come, first-served should be hyphenated because they are acting as an adjective.
That's a great usage tip. And, remember, Info Cloud is free for everyone. It doesn't operate on a first-come, first-served basis.
英文有一句用語經常會聽到，那就是 First come, first served. 先到的人就會先被服務，這是商家進行促銷活動時經常用的口號，例如，前一百名客人就贈送精美包包，送完為止，這就是First come, first served. 的概念。
This restaurant doesn’t take reservations. It’s first come, first served. 這家餐廳不接受訂位，他們是先到先服務的制度，意思就是要現場排隊。特別要注意 First come, first "served" 的 "served" 是過去式，是被動的用法，因為你是被服務的。如果要當作形容詞，像是 first-come, first- served basis 先到先服務的原則，那就要加上 hyphen (-) 連接號。
