When we got to the Hotel, I first unpacked all my stuff. After that our Teacher said that we’re already gonna do our first little trip to a museum about slavery. So I got myself ready and we headed out, to the museum, in a big group. When we got there, a guid started telling us were we are gonna look around and what we are mostly gonna look at. He also told us that we can look around ourselfs in little groups at the end of his tour.
The first thing we saw was a mask hanging on the wall and Gareth literally jumped in front of it and started mimiking the mask. I onestly thought it was kind of funny, but Morgan really did not like that he did that.
But the tour guide also had to laugh a little and started telling us about the history of this mask.
After that we started walking a bit and I saw some kind of drum. Because I didn’t really know what that was I asked the tour guide and he explained to us things like „Who played it?”, for example. He then also showed us a lot more things and then it was time to walk around a bit on our own. We walked along some of the corridors and it was really sad to see, what the people in slavery had to go through back then.
After a while our teacher called us and every single group headed back to the entrance. The teacher then checked if everyone was there and we headed back to the hotel.
