Dear diary,
Yesterday was a great day. My class went on a trip to the National Museum. We left school at eight o'clock and travelled by bus. It took one hour.
First, we saw an old mummy in a glass box. It was wrapped in long bandages. I did not like it because it was scary, but my friend Wei was not afraid. Then we drew pictures of the Egyptian masks. I drew a gold mask, and Wei drew a blue one.
At one o'clock, we had lunch in the garden. I ate a sandwich and drank orange juice. After lunch, Miss Hanim bought a postcard for everyone.
I was tired when I got home, but I was very happy.
