Dear Mellyani,
On my last school holiday, my classmates and I went to Borobudur. The Borobudur temple is really magnificent. The hugeness of the temple really impressed me. How could our ancestors build such a big temple? It was amazing.
In the temple, we went upstairs step by step. Walking around the temple, we saw many reliefs on the temple walls. Some foreigners seemed interested in them. I overheard their conversation with the guide. Actually the relief tells a story. iaba
Itwas really a nice experience! I hope you can go there someday. Mellyani JI. Timur
Love, Puan 45 Jakarta

A.M. on June 25 and you're flying on KLN air #1327. Is that right?
I told Steve to look for a woman with two young girls but he wanted more information. Do you look the same? What about your daughters? You shouldn’t have

I can’t wait to see you!

Rony

Jakarta, September 29, 2013 Dear Kiki,
Last holiday, my brother and I visited our grandparents in Bandar Lampung. There are many tourist destinations, such as museum, shores, water park, zoo, and Way Kambas. During our visit, we decided to go to Way Kambas, the elephant training center. We wanted to watch the huge animals playing football.
Way Kambas is situated in East Lampung, about 110 km from Bandar Lampung, the capital city of Lampung. It took 3 hours to reach Way Kambas from our grandparents’ home. We left early in the morning at 6 A M. by car. It would take longer to go there by motorcycle or bus.
We were lucky to visit the place on the weekend because the elephant football show is only held on weekends. The show was great. It was amazing to see such big animals running and kicking the ball. The ball was larger than the one used in regular football. After that we watched other attractions. My brother had a ride on the big animals, but I didn’t. I was too nervous to do it.
At 4 P.M., we returned to Bandar Lampung. We were very tired, but impressed. It was really an interesting experience for us. I hope you can visit it in the future. By the way, how was your holiday?
Yours.
Miranti
