Vacation to London
Mr. Richard’s family was on vacation. They are Mr. and Mrs.
Richard with two sons. They went to London. They saw their travel agent and
booked their tickets. They went to the British Embassy to get visas to enter Britain.
They had booked fourteen days tour. This includes travel and accommodation.
They also included tours around London. They boarded a large Boeing flight. The
flight was nearly fourteen hours.
On the plane the cabin crews were very friendly. They gave
them news paper and magazine to read. They gave them food and drink. There was
a film for their entertainment. They had a very pleasant flight. They slept
part of the way.
On arrival at Heathrow Airport, they had to go to Customs
and Immigration. The officers were pleasant. They checked the document
carefully but their manners were very polite. Mr. Richard and his family
collected their bags and went to London Welcome Desk. They arranged the
transfer to a hotel.
The hotel was a well-known four-star hotel. The room had
perfect view of the park. The room had its own bathroom and toilet. Instead of
keys for the room, they inserted a key-card to open the door. On the third
floor, there was a restaurant serving Asian and European food. They had variety
of food.
The two week in London went by fast. At the end of the
14-day, they were quite tired but they felt very happy.
- My Horrible
Experience
Let me
remind you my experience during an earthquake last week. When the earthquake
happened, I was on my car. I was driving home from my vocation to Bali.
Suddenly my
car lunched to one side, to the left. I thought I got flat tire. I did not know
that it was an earthquake. I knew it was an earthquake when I saw some
telephone and electricity poles falling down to the ground, like matchsticks.
Then I saw a
lot of rocks tumbling across the road. I was trapped by the rock. Even I could
not move my car at all. There were rocks everywhere. There was nothing I could
do but left the car and walked along way to my house, in the town.
When I
reached my town, I was so surprised that there was almost nothing left. The
earthquake made a lot of damage to my town. Although nothing was left, I
thanked God that nobody was seriously injured.
