The field trip

I was selected to go to the field trip as I said. I think they picked about 60 students to go. They picked the ones that had good attendance, handed in their homework on time and were behaving and positive in the class room. I was honored to go. We went to the “Museum of South Texas History” It was very interesting to learn about the history of the place I'm now living in.

In Mexican tradition November 2nd is “el dia de los muertos” or the day of the dead. That is a big celebration where they decorate with scelletons and they go to the graveyard and leaves their friends and family that have passed away their favorite food. Because its soon gonna be Noveber 2nd they had people at he museum dress out and there was also a play. I could only understand half of the play because the actor switched back an forth between talking English and Spanish. They also had dancers and a mariachi band. A mariachi band is a typical mexican band. The ones that were playing for us were from a highschool in the area and they were really good.

After the museum we went to Peter piper where we got free lunch and ice cream mmmm.
