Dear diary,

Last Sunday morning, Aunt Emily made an announcement. She told us that she was going to take us on a cruise! I was very surprised, knowing how expensive a holiday like that could be. However, we agreed. We aren’t a wealthy family, but we do have a little money put aside, over the years, which we usually use part of, for vacations.

When the day of departure finally arrived, We were thrilled to see how huge and luxurious the ship was. Our cruise liner sailed distinguishly out to sea, as our holiday began.

What a disappointment! There was so little to do on board. The boredom almost drove us mad. We visited several ports, but we didn’t have the freedom to do what wanted to. Furthermore, we had to follow a very tight schedule of guided tours an visits to museums. It was an uninteresting experience!

How did the writer and his/her family travel on vacation ?

• By car

• By ship

• By bus

• By train

Last month, I travelled to several cities in Sumatra. From Jakarta, I went by a bus to Merak harbour. I had to take a ferry to pass the Sunda strait, from Merak to Tanjung Karang. Then, I travelled from Tanjungkarang to Palembang. I stayed two days in Palembang. Then, I got the train from from Palembang to Lubuklinggau. I stayed one night there and the next day I took a bus to Bukitinggi. The journey lasted twenty four hours. I spent two weeks around Bukitinggi. I visited the Sianok,Canyon, Lake Maninjau and Istano Pagaruyung. After my week in Bukitinggi, I travelled by bus to Lake Toba, the largest lake in the Southeast Asia. This area has beautiful scenery and contains many examples of Batak houses and`graveyards. After a few days on Samosir Island, I travelled to Medan and from there to the Gunung Leuser National Park. This is the largest national park in south east Asia. I saw orang-utans, monkeys rhinos, and many beautiful birds. I visited the rain forest. It was beautiful. My last few days were spent in Banda Aceh. I really enjoyed this city.

What is the main idea of the paragraph above?

• The beauty of Sumatra Island

• The largest Lake in Southeast Asia.

• TThe biggest National Park in Asia

• The writer`s nice trip to Sumatra
