0:06 In this lesson we will discuss a visit to the museum.
0:19 Vella. Why don’t you take Vincent somewhere this Sunday?
0:23 Hmm...Should I take him to my mom’s?
0:27 Vella...Did you forget? He went to grandma’s just last week!
0:32 Oh! Sorry...My mistake...I’ll take him to the Smithsonian Institution.
0:39 Now that’s like a real mom!
0:41 Yeah! I think he will love it. It will be very educational for him!
0:46 It will sure be. I hope he doesn’t turn out to be an archaeologist like you though.
0:52 Hey! What’s wrong with archaeology?
0:55 It’s very nice! But they are obsessed with old junk!
1:00 Now that’s very mean, Duke!
1:09 Two tickets, please.
1:11 Oh, I see your boy there. Two tickets for you and him?
1:15 That’s right
1:17 How old is he?
1:18 He’s 8 years old.
1:20 Then you’ll need only one ticket, for you.
1:23 Oh! What a nice surprise!
1:26 Here’s your ticket.
1:27 Thank you.
1:35 Excuse me. May I know which way is the art gallery?
1:40 Sure Ma’am. It’s on the third floor.
1:43 This museum is large! It’s difficult to find everything.
1:49 Please check the floor plan near the stairs at every entrance.
1:53 Oh thank you! I will keep a watch out for those.
1:57 Do you have the booklet guide to the museum?
2:00 Sorry! I actually forgot to take that.
2:04 That’s fine. Here’s one for you.
2:07 Thank you! Hope I don’t get lost again!
2:17 So how did you like the museum visit?
2:20 It was fantastic! David was very interested in pre-historical things.
2:26 All kids are! I am sure he loved looking at the dinosaur bones.
2:31 Yes! And the tools made by the cavemen. He loved them.
2:36 What else did you see?
2:37 Lots of things. I enjoyed seeing the costumes and exhibits from hundreds of years ago.
