was slowly climbing the mountain, it suddenly became stuck. It slowly moved backward. We
quickly jumped out of the car. The driver asked us to push the car and we did so accordingly.
We pushed and pushed the car but the engine couldn't start. When we were so tired to push,

Last summer I went to India with my family. We spent 10 days travelling around
Rajasthan and I will never forget it. We saw lots of things like the TajMahal and we went to a
tiger reserve. Our guide was called Krishna and he was really really nice especially when I
didn’t always understand things he would explain it to me and answer all my stupid
questions. Also when I got ill with a fever he was really kind and gave me medicine (and got
a priest to give me a blessing in a Hindu temple we visited) and I got well again very quickly.
There were lots of amazing parts of the holiday. One was when we got to ride on
elephants in Jaipur. My sister and I rode an elephant called Lucky. It was really fun and I also
liked riding on a camel. We were in a camel cart but Krishna talked
to the camel’s owner and we were allowed to ride on them, which
was really cool. I also really liked the TajMahal because it was even
prettier than I imagined. My sister lost her shoes but the people in
India are really kind and so we found them again. The weather was
really hot which was nice because Krishna gave us lots of time to
spend in the pool and relax in-between going to see all the amazing
sites.
This was the best holiday that I have ever been on; I will miss
the other people in our group and our guide a lot. I wish I could come back another year.

An Unforgetable Trip to Bromo
Last holiday, my friends and I decided to go to Bromo. We left Semarang in the
afternoon. After a very long trip, we finally arrived in Probolinggo. We arrived at the hotel at
2 p.m. and immediately were ready for our trip to the mountain.
Driving on our 1997 Suzuki Carry we climbed Penanjakan to enjoy the sunrise. It was
amazing. From Penanjakan we left to Bromo. During our trip, a horrible thing happened.
Although Bromo is lower than Penanjakan, our trip proved to be very difficult. While our car
was slowly climbing the mountain, it suddenly became stuck. It slowly moved backward. We
quickly jumped out of the car. The driver asked us to push the car and we did so accordingly.
We pushed and pushed the car but the engine couldn't start. When we were so tired to push,

Last summer I went to India with my family. We spent 10 days travelling around
Rajasthan and I will never forget it. We saw lots of things like the TajMahal and we went to a
tiger reserve. Our guide was called Krishna and he was really really nice especially when I
didn’t always understand things he would explain it to me and answer all my stupid
questions. Also when I got ill with a fever he was really kind and gave me medicine (and got
a priest to give me a blessing in a Hindu temple we visited) and I got well again very quickly.
There were lots of amazing parts of the holiday. One was when we got to ride on
elephants in Jaipur. My sister and I rode an elephant called Lucky. It was really fun and I also
liked riding on a camel. We were in a camel cart but Krishna talked
to the camel’s owner and we were allowed to ride on them, which
was really cool. I also really liked the TajMahal because it was even
prettier than I imagined. My sister lost her shoes but the people in
India are really kind and so we found them again. The weather was
really hot which was nice because Krishna gave us lots of time to
spend in the pool and relax in-between going to see all the amazing
sites.
This was the best holiday that I have ever been on; I will miss
the other people in our group and our guide a lot. I wish I could come back another year.
