The Windmill is a staple of a beach day. The Windmill, the Lighthouse and Bagel Masters all in one day is a perfect day. The Windmill sells many things but they’re known for their hot dogs and cheese fries. I can’t tell you how good they are unless you’ve been there. Bagel Masters makes the bagels as you’re buying them, warm in your mouth as you bite into them and Lighthouse is a Italian ice place. I’ve had all three so summer has officially started.
My birthday was at the end of May, sorry this is late. Anyway I decided to go to the Natural History Museum for their Mummies exhibit. I’ve loved reading about ancient Egypt since I was a child, I pretended to be Cleopatra and Nefertiti. So when I saw the Natural History Museum was showing mummies I had to go.
We (Rosie, Steve and Marc) started the day off with coffee and bagels. Bagel Masters makes the bagels as you walk in. The air smells like dough raising and yeast. Most of the time, if you get there early enough, the bagels are still warm. I got a salt bagel with egg and cheese.
At the museum we did three exhibits: the Butterflies, The Darkness and The Mummies. We had down time in between to check out the different areas. We stopped at the cafeteria for a snack. I got some juice and raspberry sorbet. It was refreshing after walking around for a long time. In the butterfly exhibit a couple of butterflies landed on me which was fun.
After the museum we went to the Shake Shack. I got a bacon cheese burger and cheese fries. I love cheese fries and they were as good as I remember. The bacon cheese burger was good too- they had messed up my order but fixed it.
And finally when we got back home we watched The Mummy. I’d never seen it before and it looked fun. We ate smores and talked about live. It was a fun birthday. When I got home I finally had a cupcake my mom had got me. They looked too good to be eaten!
