Around The World Trip 19

Diary #19

 I woke up at the same time my parents did. Once we were ready to go outdoors, we went to the Korean Restaurant we always went to. When we were full, we went to a art museum. There, I saw three beautiful paintings. Two of them had things in common: people were redrawing it for themselves and occurred during the winter. The other one was of Adam and Eve under an apple tree with a snake dangling down from the tree.

 After starting into all the beautiful paintings my mom, dad, and I went to our hotel to rest. Inside, we slept, read books, and solved puzzles. The next event was the best of all. We went to watch a opera called "Rigoleto" about a jester who is cursed by an old man because the jester embarrassing the old man's daughter by of ripping the top part of her dress in front of lots of people. All of a sudden the jester is afraid.

 Then, news spills that the jester's wife was beautiful. A playboy, the jester's master finds her and messes with her. She is in love with him even though he has ditched her. The jester tries to kill his own master but when his only family member, his daughter finds out, she dies for her beloved playboy. Before throwing his "master" into the water, he decides to take a peek. When he notices that his daughter is dead instead of his master, he remembers about the curse. The curse had made all of this happen!

 After that terrifying, sad, but good opera finished, everyone spilled out of the Golden Hall (where we watched it) including us. We went to the hotel and after counting 20 sheep, I fell asleep.
