Before entering the museum, Mr. Hazrin reminded us of etiquettes in the museum. We arrived at the National Museum at around 12 noon by bus. Then we walk in twos towards the museum. Once we stepped inside, papers were distributed to us. It was an assignment for us to accomplish by searching the answers at the food gallery.
