Day at the Museum
Hi, it’s Erin speaking. Yesterday, Bella and I went to the museum. But first we got on a train and rode it to the museum. It took a half hour. When we finally arrived, we got free passes, because the first Monday of each month, everyone gets in free. So we went up stairs and first we learned about coal. Did you know that trees get buried under ground and get cut off from oxygen? And that is where coal comes from. Next, we went in to the skeleton room. And saw a bunch of skeletons from different animals. Like the wooly mammoth, buffalo, saber tooth tiger, and the horse. One of the interesting things I thought about the horse was that it was that it started out with little fingers but over time, it got hooves. There was also some stuff that felt like sand. And Bella and I built a dam with it, and mine was stronger. Well, it held up longer, but eventually it broke. Then we learned about the Anastasians, and that it took 500 man hours to build one model of one of their houses. Bella and I thought it was pretty cool. Then we saw a lady that talked about how the Anastasias would make knives with rocks, and how they made clothes, and lots of stuff then we went down to the dinosaur exhibit. And saw skeletons of dinosaurs. Then we went in to a dark scary cave and something popped up in front of me and I screamed. So we left and we took a train to the library and it was 7 stories high. Because it had a few stores in it, so I call it a mini-mall. Then we took a train back home. -Erin
