✒️Subway Surfing. πŸšˆπŸ„πŸ‡°πŸ‡·


Today we are going to the science museum. The museum is too far away for us to walk to, so we are riding on the subway. Before we got on the subway, my mom got my sister Jina and me T-Money transit cards at a little shop.

You just hold the card next to a card reader on the bus or subway and it takes money from the card. You can add more money at little machines in the subway or at stores like Seven-Eleven. We have our own discounted kids' cards.
This is me with my new card. You can click on it to get a closer look.

Then we took a bus to the subway station. The bus was my first chance to use my new card. At the station we went down a set of stairs to get to the underground tracks.
This is my sister Jina and me on the stairs.
Then we found a row of little card gates. At the card gate, we swiped our cards. The card reader knew that we were transferring from the bus, so it didn't charge us extra! 
The row of gates.


My sister swipes her card at the gates.

Next we examined the map so we knew where we were going. 
This is the map. We started at the very bottom of the blue line on the right.

Then, the subway train came and we rode for about half an hour .
The train fills up with people fast! When we got on the train was almost full.
The train can get so full that there is barely even room to stand. you are lucky if you can get a seat when the train car is that full.
Eventually, it emptied and we were some of the only people riding. It took awhile, but we finally got to the Science Museum. We swiped our cards as we left the gates and began to explore.

  2. This reminds me when we were in Taiwan, it's called MRT I think... When Kevin and Carson got their own card, they were very excited, too��
