So finally we arrive at the National Civil Rights Museum. We immediately get off go to the entrance and have to pay $13 each so in total it's $39. We pay and gain entrance and start walking around we talk to a person that works there and he tells us that in this place was were Martin Luther King Jr was assassinated. It was kind of cool, but weird to know this. We also learned that they trace the history of the Civil Rights Movement in the US since the 17th century to now. The Martin Luther King Jr Foundation bought a motel for $144,000 and turned it into the museum. Now that we knew this we realized that this is the reason why the museum looked so different compared to the others. We were gonna hang out a bit more in the museum but we were asked to leave because the museum closes at 5:00 pm, so we left and we went eat a burger king and for the food we payed $33 in total for our meals.Then we are headed off to St. Louis and we also stop by the gas station to refuel which costs $50. After approximately 5 hours we arrive but we are exhausted and stay at a hotel for the night for $80. So today we wasted a total of $202. We then woke up, took a shower and used the bathroom. We then took off to our next destination.
