Why did the writer describe the trip to Sumbawa as an “unforgettable holiday”?

My last holiday was really unforgettable. My school took the students to Sumbawa. Our teachers told us that it was an event to end the semester. They booked a two-day tour for usand the next two days were really fun.

The next morning, after we finished our breakfast, the tour agent picked us up from the hotel. We embarked for Poto Tano harbor West Sumbawa. The trip took about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Once we arrived there, we explored Maluk Beach. I learned how to surf there. It was fun although I failed many times standing on the board. We had lunch at a local restaurant and took some rest before we went to Mantar Peak. We really enjoyed the sunset. The sunset was amazing! It was true what people say that this place was like “the land in the clouds”. I could enjoy the beautiful sky covered with orange color. When the sky got dark, we went to the village to have dinner and stay overnight in a traditional house in Mantar.

We woke up early the second day. We didn’t want to miss the agenda on that day. We enjoyed the sunrise at Mantar Peak before we went back to the village to have breakfast. The sunrise gave us an amazing view. We had a trip to Kenawa Island and went trekking to Kenawa hill after breakfast. The guide that accompanied us explained the necessary information regarding the island. Then, we went to Poto Tano harbor to embark for Kayangan harbor, East Lombok.
