RECOUNT TEXT POST-TEST

Last weekend, I visited my pen pal's house. His Name is Anto. There were many activities I did there.

In the morning, Anto and I had breakfast. We had traditional food. I liked it very much. After breakfast, he took me to the garden behind his house. The garden was very big and beautiful. There is a big birdcage in the garden. There were many kinds of birds in that cage. I spent a long time feeding the birds. I also took pictures of those beautiful birds.

After visiting the bird cage, Anto and I went to the flower garden not far from his house. We rested, had lunch under a big tree, and watched butterflies flying above colorful flowers. In the afternoon, we swam in the pool in the backyard.

It was so much fun. I really enjoyed my time with Anto.
