On Friday, October 13th, 2017, I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for my history class. My history teacher, Anna Boozer, told us to meet in the lobby by three fifteen. I took the four train from Bowling Green in Manhattan to get there. However, when I first got on the subway, I accidentally took the four going the other way, the one that was Brooklyn bound. I didn’t even realize it until I heard “the next stop is Borough Hall” over the loud speaker. I thought to myself “isn’t Borough Hall in Brooklyn?” and quickly got off there. When I got off, I had to look for the Manhattan/Bronx bound train. Finally, after the subway ride, I arrived at the Met. Anyways, when most of us got there, my teacher was still giving a tour to a different group before ours. Those of us that were there just stood around in the lobby waiting for our teacher to finish that tour. When her tour was over, she met up with us in the lobby. She gave us a makeshift attendance sheet to sign. After more people showed up, we started our class tour. We visited the ancient Egypt exhibit, and it was pretty interesting. We saw different primary sources and artifacts that included statues, tombs, and other pieces of construction with hieroglyphics on them. Our teacher led us through many rooms, explaining what different things were along the way. After seeing all the artifacts from various pharaohs, she led us into a huge room that had a big tomb in the center and had flowing water on one side. She told us that you can actually rent that room out but it would be very expensive. Finally, she said that we could stay and see other exhibits or we could just leave.
