Chapter 926 If you love her, hug her



Among Yunluo's previous travel experiences, the most unforgettable ones are the Egyptian Museum and the Prince of Wales Museum, especially the Egyptian Museum, where the pharaoh's stone statues that are thousands of years old stand in the visiting corridor, and you can touch and hold them as you like! When your fingertips touch the stone statues that have experienced thousands of years of reincarnation, your mind also constructs the scene at that time through imagination, about the glory of history.

Each exhibit is unique, representing a small eddy or splash in the long river of human history. Knowing the stories behind it will make the visit more nourishing.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art offers audio guides for rent. There is a Chinese version of the audio guide, which comes with a guide map. The rental fee is $7, which is worth it. I spent more than 3 hours at the Metropolitan Museum of Art today, but I only hurriedly visited the exhibits recommended on the guide map. They are just a drop in the ocean of this vast collection of historical relics, but they are already amazing.

I believe that all museum lovers will have the same feeling after visiting the Met. The photos listed below are some exhibits that cannot be missed, and there will also be detailed introductions in the audio guide.

Many exhibits embody incomparable beauty, and this beauty also proves that art is an indispensable part of human existence. Living is not just about having enough food to eat, having warm clothes to wear, having a house to shelter from the wind and rain, and mating and reproducing. The pursuit of beauty and the creation of beauty are the most shining souls that the Creator has given to human beings.

When leaving the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I realized that I had not returned my room card. On the way back, I hurriedly got off the bus one stop earlier and ran all the way to the hotel to return the room card. The blonde girl at the front desk asked Yunluo if he ran here breathlessly just to return the room card. Then she said, "Its bsp;When I came in, the front desk clearly said to drop the keyxxx, so don't take it with you. The bus back to Maryland at 4:30 in the afternoon, Yunluo ran all the way to the bus stop to meet up with Mushroom girl and her family, sweating profusely!

When I was running on the road, I startled a group of pigeons, which almost hit a passerby. I'm sorry~ In the end, I was too attached to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I left too late.

First of all, he was right. It was wrong to violate the rules and share a room with multiple people. Most motels would not charge extra for more than 2 people, as long as there were no more than 4 people. Some motels clearly stated that there would be a charge for more than 2 people. So it was indeed "violation of the rules" for Yunluo and Yan Chenyu to stay in the hotel for a few days.

To be honest, Yunluo has done many "wrong" things. He ran a red light when crossing the road, threw cigarette butts on the road when he couldn't find a trash can, and used a ticket given to him by another rider to enter Tarqin (the ticket was valid for 7 days). He also urinated in the wilderness. So what? "None of your business~"

Is this behavior embarrassing for the Chinese people? At least Yunluo has a clear conscience. What do you think of the 52nd floor traveler? Yunluo just wants to say "It's none of Yunluo's business~". The trip to the United States was not in Yunluo's plan. This time it was also over budget, and the accommodation fee was also based on the principle of saving as much as possible.

During the trip to the Western National Park, when four people were squeezed into a room, and during the entire trip to Route 66, Yunluo slept on the floor in a sleeping bag, except that he used more bath water. Yunluo felt that he did not harm the interests of the motel by "violating regulations".

The recommended ticket price for the Metropolitan Museum of Art is $25. You can even buy 10 tickets for $1. Yunluo doesn't think it's embarrassing to spend $3 on a ticket, and Yunluo doesn't think it's a face-saving thing for someone to pay $100 for a ticket.

Yunluo's criticism is also because Yunluo's quality is not high enough, and he has a hot temper. He can't stand some idiots who casually comment on others, "You know nothing~" Well. The 3p principles are expressed, it feels good.

Since Yunluo and Yan Chenyu will be leaving the East Coast tomorrow, Mushroom MM has a lot to do today. Yunluo also helped pack the luggage and then accompanied her to the post office to mail two large boxes of things. Moving is really a hassle.

At about 3 pm, Yunluo set out for Washington. She was familiar with the subway routes and prices, but she didn't expect that her subway ticket would be refunded every time she came out of the subway station. Yunluo was still wondering why she couldn't get out of the station today with the same $4.6 ticket. A black guy saw Yunluo at a loss. "< with me?" Yunluo understood and followed his ticket out of the gate. When she returned at night, Yunluo finally understood what was going on.

It was already 4pm when we arrived in Washington, and we only had an hour to visit the National Museum of American History. To be fair, compared with the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of American History is relatively ordinary, after all, the history of this country is too short. However, those who are sentimental can still find some exhibits they like here.

For example, the introduction of Route 66, Edison's first light bulb, the evening gowns worn by successive first ladies at their inauguration ceremonies, Ali's boxing gloves, and the desk used by Jefferson.

After leaving the museum, we walked to the White House. Since we didn't have a reservation, we could only look at it from a distance from the back door of the White House. Most tourists also visit the White House from here. From time to time, guards with guns on their backs looked around with binoculars on the roof.

But this did not prevent a guy at the door who looked very much like "Owen Wilson" from shouting at Washington at the top of his voice. Almost every sentence contained the word starting with "f" and he also made various middle-finger gestures. Yun Luo thought to himself, buddy, it's a good thing you were born in America!

The pedestrian street to the north of the White House is quite spacious and beautiful. Across the street there is a simple tent house set up by an Iraqi grandmother. The surrounding area is covered with banners and slogans, all of which accuse the US government of some atrocities during the war. It seems that she has lived here for a long time and her influence should be considerable. The so-called "right to free expression" is also fully reflected here.

Yunluo sat on the side of the road to rest, watching the sun gradually covering the entire street with a golden color, while enjoying the man playing the cello next to him. The melodious canon made Yunluo miss his own violin again.

Today I thought I'd better go back early so as not to make my godmother and grandmother worry anymore, so I went to the subway station and continued to pay for tickets with coins. This time I looked carefully and understood why Yunluo couldn't leave the station in the afternoon. It turned out that from 3pm to 7pm is the peak period, and the ticket price is more expensive. It was actually peak period when Yunluo came here this afternoon!

I looked at the clock and it was 6:45. I simply found a park to rest and wrote a diary for a while. It was after 7 o'clock before I bought a normal non-peak ticket to go back! Yunluo was really trying hard to save money.

I only slept for 4 hours last night and was so sleepy that I was in a coma on the plane. When I woke up, I could see the Great Salt Lake outside the window. We landed at Salt Lake City Airport in Utah 30 minutes later.

After leaving the airport, we went to the car rental company to pick up the car. They also upgraded Yunluo and Yan Chenyu to a Chevrolet SUV for free. It was much more spacious and comfortable to sit in, and the trunk was big enough to put the three suitcases that Mushroom mm was going to bring for the move. For nearly two weeks afterwards, Mushroom mm was the driver and Yunluo was the navigator. They worked well together.

My first impression of the Midwest is the vast plains, more grass than trees, occasional rolling hills, and patches of red shrubs on the seemingly barren hillsides. Maryland is still almost lush and green and the leaves are just beginning to fall, but here the autumn colors are already very strong!

Yunluo and Yan Chenyu had a McDonald's lunch at Walmart and bought some supplies, including 18 bags of Shin Ramen, 4 bags of Udon noodles, 4 boxes of instant lunches, 1 box of Coke, 1 box of beer, 1 box of mineral water, 1 bag of bread, and some fruits. The trunk of the yogurt truck was almost full!

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The navigation system led us directly to our accommodation for the night, Teton Village, located in the south of Grand Teton National Park. It was a 300-mile drive, and it was hard work. She only came back at 2 a.m. last night, and she barely slept. Today she had to drive another 5 hours, and she was in high spirits! The scenery along the way was great, perhaps because she was tired of visiting the eastern cities.

Suddenly I arrived in the rural wilderness of the western United States. It was refreshing no matter how I looked at it. The straight roads had wide lanes and there were no cars, so I always drove to almost 90 miles without realizing it. When I suddenly saw it, I would quickly let off the accelerator because the police on American roads are no pushovers.

There are many cars in the United States, including RVs, pickup trucks and trailers. Many of the large trucks on the road are Peterbilt. Unfortunately, I have never seen Optimus Prime painted with blue and red flame stripes. The most avoided thing here is not the large trucks, but motorcycles, commonly known as meat wrapped in iron. Yun Luo and Yan Chenyu, who are like iron wrapped in meat, might accidentally hit someone.

If something goes wrong, you will probably lose a lot of money. Motorcycles here drive very fast, usually faster than cars. During the more than one month of self-driving in the United States, I was only overtaken by motorcycles, but never overtaken by motorcycles. They just fly past with a little gas!

Sitting in the passenger seat, chatting with the driver is also an important job. I happened to go to New York that day, so I talked about Friends with Mushroom MM. When I had a break on the road, I could watch one or two episodes. It was very warm and joyful. How happy it would be if I had old friends like family as neighbors or even roommates in my daily life.

Hotel rooms in the United States are usually carpeted and very soft, so Yunluo didn't need to put anything under her and could just get into her sleeping bag, which was very comfortable. (To be continued...)
