Well, today we were going to MOHAI, Museum of History and Industry, for our history class. We left school at 8:45, and arrived at the museum at 9:50. The traffic going downtown Seattle is awful at this time, and it took us at least twice as long time to get there.
The museum was alright. I think it would have been better if we had gotten a guided tour, because we were all just walking around, and didn't really know where to go and what we were looking at.
We didn't have school the rest of the day, so after the museum, we were driven downtown. 8 girls and Jasper went to the Cheesecake Factory to eat lunch. It was soooooo delicious! We all shared 3 pieces of cheesecake for dessert, and we all agreed that it was pretty darn good!
After we had been shopping a bit, some of us took the Monorail, from downtown to Seattle center. The Monorail is a kind of train, that drives on rails above the streets. Because of the new Harry Potter movie coming out in a little bit (so excited by the way) the train was "dressed" as the Hogwarts Express.
When we were getting on the train, we all stood in line to get our tickets. We all got on the train, except Janne, and then the doors closed! None of us could do anything, and the 6 of us who made it in the train just waved (and laughed) at Janne while the train started. Luckily, this kind of train goes back and forward between the same two stops, so Janne just got on the next one, but gosh, it was hilarious!!
One of the reasons we had no school today, was so that we could go to the Experience Music Project. It is a museum about music. It is free every first Thursday in every month, so of course, being the Danes we are, we were going. That too was alright, it had a lot of cool guitars and such, but we were all pretty tired, so we left pretty quickly.
The guitar sculpture at the Experience Music is AWESOME!!
SvarSletAnd Poor Janne!!! Hopefully she was not too freaked! :-)
Glad you are enjoy the awesome weather and the incredible nature around there! It really is like no other place!
