A Wonderful Trip to Field Museum
We have the second field trip of the class to Field Museum last week. Field Museum is one of the significant landmark of the city as the Shedd Aquarium that we been for the last trip. Professor divided students into 5 groups and she announce we need to complete some missions in each group. After that, we left school and took the red line to the museum. The museum located at museum campus right next to Lake Michigan. The day was a sunny with fresh breeze blowing. The Field Museum has different section of exhibit separated from different categories. My favorite exhibit is the Ancient Egypt, Ancient America, and the Dinosaur exhibit.
My group member and I were reaching the mummy for the mission, so we went to the ancient Egypt. Ahead down the stairs, I saw some coffins and mummy exhibits. I took a picture of the mummy and posted it on the app for the mission. In addition, it shows the wall painting, some jewelry from the pyramid.
After that, we needed a picture of the Native American Clothing, we got into the ancient American exhibit. It was dark inside, I saw the environment of ancient America, how the Native American hunting and the tools that they use. Then we found a lot of clothing exhibit, fur coat, dress, accessories and shoes.
Finally, we found the dinosaur exhibit, it on the second floor of the museum. It was over ten huge dinosaur fossils in a big exhibition room. Of course, there was a lot other visitors too. All the dinosaurs are very big and lifelike. Furthermore, after 2 hours reaching around in the museum for the mission, all the group members got very tired and hungry.
In conclusion, Field Museum is a significant landmark in Chicago. However, I learn a lot of culture form different country in here. It was an amazing experience. I also enjoy the trip to visit museum and the game was very funny. I was having a great time with my class mate.

An Exploration Experience of Shedd Aquarium
An Exploration Experience of Shedd Aquarium
It was an amazing trip to Shedd Aquarium! We had a trip to Shedd Aquarium in the class couple days ago. It was a great day for walk out the class room during the summer. Shedd Aquarium is one of the famous tourist attraction in Chicago. I think everyone agree with this, because when we arrived aquarium, it was a long line at the main entrance, and it took us 45 minutes to get in there. It was a free day for Illinois resident visitors, all we required it was a Illinois state ID, then we could get a free ticket.

We finally get in aquarium after 45 minutes, after we walked through the main lobby, there is a giant exhibit aquarium in front of us call Caribbean Reef. There are so many different fish from Caribbean Sea in it. Such as Ray, bonnethead shark, butterflyfish, sea turtle... We were so lucky because it was a diver diving in the giant aquarium and he was feeding the fishes. Ray was ma favorite fish, their mouth located on the bottom of their body, we could see their mouth always like smiling.
After the Caribbean Reef , I went to the ocean exhibit, it was a beautiful exhibit that shows the beautiful world underwater. Pretty corals and anemones, colorful tropical fishes, giant spiders crab, star fishes and sea urchins in different colors, makes people exclaime how amazing the world underwater is! At the time the, the aquarium also appeal to people protect the ocean, leave a great living environment for marine organisms.
Subsequently, I went to the Amazon Rising exhibit, the Amazon exhibit is more than just fish, there are some animals in the exhibit too. Such as monk, snakes,chameleons ,frogs and ducks. The chameleons were hiding so well I could not ever find them. There is a frightful anaconda in one of the exhibition. I am scared of snakes, especially that anaconda as thick as my arms.
However, the trip was great, everyone was enjoyable in the trip. I would love to recommend this place to my friends and family, because it's a great aquarium, they also have the dolphins and sea lions show. But we don't have that much time on Monday, I'll be back next time.
