A Trip to Tanjung Setia Beach

Last year, at the end of the year, my wife and I decided to spend our holiday at Tanjung Setia
beach, which located around 234 kilometers from Bandarlampung.
When we arrived at the beach, we were surprised to see the beautiful view of the beach. After
having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold and windy, we realized that there were not
many people there. We thought that it happened because it was too windy there during that time
but we finally realized that it was Christmas holiday so almost all of tourists who are used to
spending time there went back to their country.
After spending few times swimming in the beach, we bought some hot chips at the
takeaway store nearby, and we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part
of the sand. The next day we visited Labuan Jukung beach. There, we were amazed to see the high
wave owned by this beach. Because it was so high that no body was brave enough to surf on it that
time.
The third day there, we decided to go home when we finally made it back home, we were
both totally exhausted because of the trip but we were so happy to travel such an amazing beach
Lampung province has.

Visiting Way Kambas

Yesterday I and my family went to Way Kambas national park to see the elephants and
rhinos conserved there. Way Kambas National Park is a national park which is used as elephant and
rhino sanctuary located in Labuhan Ratu District, East Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia
When we got to there, we saw some elephant performances such as playing football, sitting,
greeting the visitors, and other entertaining performances. Unfortunately, we could not see the
Sumatran rhinoceros because visitors must have a special permit in advance to see them. Visitors or
ordinary tourists cannot see the Sumatran rhinos natural breeding. In the afternoon we saw some
animals which were being fed.
When we returned home we were tired but we were happy because we had so much fun in
Way Kambas.

A Trip to Borobudur Temple

Three years ago, I and my classmates visited Borobudur Temple. We went to Borobudur
temple by bus. We left our school at nine oclock. It took us 24 hours to arrive there. I arrived there
nine oclock the next day. Along the road, we saw many vehicles, unique houses, prominent
buildings, and some other tourists.
After we arrived at the Borobudur temple, one of my teachers went to buy tickets. After we
waited him for a moment we entered into Borobudur temple area. Then we went up to the top of
the temple. Borobudur temple was built at Budur Village, Magelang, Jawa Tengah by Syailendra
Dynasty. Borobudur Temple is the biggest temple in the world. It has 504 statues and 1.400 reliefs.
From the top of the temple we can see such beautiful scenery. I and my friends went around the
temple together. Finally, after having some visits, we should go to the hotel to stay and continue our
study tour the next day.
We felt tired that day but we felt so happy to visit Borobudur temple which is well-known as
one of the greatest legacies Indonesia has ever had. I hope the temple can be loved by all of the
visitors and the government.

Holiday in Lembah Pelangi Waterfall

Last holiday, I and my beloved wife, visited Lembah Pelangi Waterfall in Ngarip District,
Tanggamus Regency, Lampung Province, Indonesia. It was the first time for me to visit such a
wonderful waterfall.
To reach the waterfall location, we should go on foot after having around three hours trip
riding a motorcycle from Bandarlampung, the capital city of Lampung. When we arrived there, I was
amazed by the beautiful scenery of the waterfall. The air was so fresh at that time and I could not
bear to jump into the water immediately. It is quite windy there and all I could see only green, green,
and green. Hearing the sound of falling water while we were swimming made me feel peaceful and
relaxing.
Finally, the day was getting dark and it was time for us to go home. It was such an
unforgettable experience for me. I really enjoyed it.

My Vacation with My Beloved Persons

One day, my sister named Putri said to me that she really wanted to go to the beach. So I
promised her that the next week we would go to Mutun beach in Lampung.
The next week, we prepared everything needed in the morning. We brought some foods and
beverages, such as chocolate wafers, potato chips, water and orange juice. Before going to the
beach, I ask our brother, Bayu, to join us. He agreed to join and we went there together with our
parents. We went there by car. It took 3 hours to arrive there. Then, we bought tickets in the
entrance gate. Before swimming, we changed our clothes first. We swam there for more than one
hour. We felt so tired that we decided to eat the foods that we had brought. Next, three of us
created a very big sand castle, while my parents were enjoying the beautiful scenery there. After
that, we decided to go home because it was getting dark.
On the way home, we still felt hungry. So we stopped at a restaurant to have dinner. I
ordered sruit, Lampungnese traditional food, while my brother, my sister, and my parents ordered
fried rice. After finished eating, we paid our bills. Then, we went home. We arrived at home at 9
oclock. We were tired but we were absolutely happy.
