The Interesting Journey To The MFA

By Robert Anglin/ Brendan McDonough


Once again our wonderful travel writing club took another trip. We went to Museum Of Fine Arts (MFA when we were there we saw many roman statues and artifacts. We didn't get to see all the exhibits we wanted to see. One exhibit we went into was the Ancient Arts of America. When we were in there, there was this one section where you could take your shoes off and sit in a very ancient chair and get a foot massage. Entering the exhibit it clearly says no photos or flash. Our funniest moment was when our lovely teacher didn't listen. She took a photo (with her FLASH on) then they asked her not to LOL. The funny part was that there were no museum administrators around then they came out of nowhere. There were so many interesting things that we did there, including the pencil trick, (ask Tyler for details). Did you know there are artifacts that you can actually sit on? We were in the Chinese exhibit, when we sat on the artifacts that we were allowed to. It felt extremely weird and it didn’t smell too pleasant after a while. You didn’t realize the smell until you actually got down from the chair. In this exhibit it was really old fashioned, everything that we all were able to sit on had to be manually powered. The experience was out of this world and i would highly recommend you guys going on Wednesday nights for free (kids and teenagers only).
