My wonderful trip

Last week, my brother and I went to Tokyo for a vacation. I did the web surfing before having a trip there. I choose to take Tokyo public transportation since many people said that Tokyo had the best transportation called MRT (Mass Rapid Transport).

The MRT was known as a commuter underground, so a large number of people transferred to go to their work place every day. We took the MRT boarded at Chiba station. When the train moved, we felt like we were in a jet. It was remarkably fast because the route was underground. We could see nothing except the darkness on both sides.

In the commuter, people were not allowed to bring any food and beverages. The regulation was aimed to keep the cleanliness of the commuter’s area. We amazed by how people obeyed the provided rule, although there was no penalty mentioned in the regulation.

On the arrival at Ariake station, we walked down around the station. Our ride was really comfortable and nice. I dreamt of living here with my family. It was really great and comfortable trip.

who did the author go with?

• his brother

• his cousin

• his sister

• his family

On Wednesday, my students and I went to Yogyakarta. We stayed at Dirgahayu Hotel which is not far from Malioboro.

On Thursday, we visited the temples in Prambanan. There are three big temples, the Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu temples. They are really amazing. We visited only Brahmana and Syiwa temples, because Wisnu temple is being renovated.

On Friday morning we went to Yogya Kraton. We spent about two hours there. We were lucky because we were led by a smart and friendly guide. Then we continued our journey to Borobudur. We arrived there at four p.m. At 5 p.m. we heard the announcement that Borobudur gate would be closed.

In the evening we left for Jakarta by wisata bus.

Ryan, my roommate, and I had a great weekend. Last Saturday we got up early and had a big breakfast. Then we took the bus to go downtown and went to an art museum. The museum opened at nine o’clock and we stayed there all morning.

We saw some beautiful paintings. We had a guide who explained everything to us. I liked all the art, but Ryan didn’t like the modern art very much. I bought copies of two paintings. I’m going to put them on the wall of my bedroom.

At one o’clock, we were hungry so we had lunch at the museum cafeteria. After lunch, we took a walk in the park near the museum. We went home at five o’clock. We were very tired, but we had a good time. On Sunday we stayed home and studied.

How did they go to the museum?

• By bicycle

• On foot

• By bus

• By train
