Our first stop today was the Alexander Tamanian Statue. It was a lot bigger than I expected, especially the hands! That was because he drew the outline of Yerevan. I thought that The Alexander Tamanian Statue with the garden and the art museum in the back looked so pretty. I think all the statues in the garden were so artistic and interesting.

The art museum had a lot of abstract sculptures. Like the chandelier that was made of fake little people on each other’s shoulders. We went to the upper part of the art museum using the escalators that were a little steep and fast. When we got to the 4th floor (there are 5 floors) we went down the stairs (outside) back towards the Alexander Tamanian Statue.

We just planted red cedar trees in Broshian. I really enjoyed it, but taking the tree out of the bucket was difficult. But I enjoyed shoveling, and pouring water on my tree. After planting our trees we went to A.T.P. Nursery. First we ate some food. Then we watched some videos about littering and recycling problems in Armenia. Some of the main problems are plastic bag littering and all the animals that get hurt from littering. Finally, we got a tour of their pretty garden. The fun had come to an end and we had to go. We went to dinner at Lahmajun Gaidz. I liked the restaurant itself, and the food was great!
