Gene Autry Museum

It was a hot and dry day when we went to Gene Autry Museum, a museum about the old west. Most of us dressed in cowboy or cowgirl outfits, like plaid shirts with jeans or dresses. The moment we walked in the museum, I had a really weird feeling, everything was so old-fashion. The architecture looked really ancient, and the smell of dirt rushed into my nose. All the buildings were made from stone, which is really different and gives us a unique feeling. I can hear the crowds, but also I can hear the rivers flowing and the cool breeze puffing though our hair. During the morning, we spent time participating in a tour around the museum. Our tour guide was really professional, she told us a lot about the history, clothes, tools and lifestyle. It really gave me a whole new perspective about cowboys and the old west. After lunch, we walked around the place and spend some time at the souvenirs shops. It was a really wonderful day. The part I loved most about the museum were all the drawings and sculptures. They were proof for the amazing culture and civilization from the past. The part I didn't like was the food, because it was too expensive and we had to wait in line for a long time. The museums are a little different from museums in Taiwan. We don't usually have a big plaza or garden in a museum, and it's really nice to join all the fun activities in the museum. We had a tremendous time.
