Where Did You Spend Your Holidays?
Yudi : [sigh] Why did holidays end so fast? I was even really enjoying my holidays. I need
more holidays. One more week should be enough.
Tia : Yeah, I know how you feel, Yudi. School should have not started out this early. Now
we have to get back to our day-to-day routine. I dont even have my passion of studying
after all this short holidays.
Ayu : Ha ha ha. Come on, Guys! I know it must be really hard for us to leave our beautiful
holidays behind. But we all know that ready or not holidays have to be over.
Tia : [Sigh] Alright, but I really wish that we can have more days left before school. So,where did you spend your holidays, Yudi?
Yudi : You want to hear the story of my holidays? Alright, I spent my holidays at my mothers
hometown in Padang.
Ayu : Wow, did you visit to any interesting places there?
Yudi : Of course! I went to some nice places there with my family, and the best places I
visited were Sianok Canyon, Japanese Cave, and Singkarak Lake. Have you ever heardthe names of those places?
Tia : Um. Nope.
Ayu : I watched Sianok Canyon once on TV, it seemed to be a great canyon.
Yudi : Youre right! Sianok Canyon was really great and extremely high. The view from up
above the canyon was tremendous. Its really beautiful. I wish I could go there with mywife in the future, hee hee hee. Singkarak lake was also beautiful. While I visited the
lake, we met and played with many monkeys that lived around the forest near the lake.
Tia : What about the Japanese Cave? It sounds cool.
Yudi : The Japanese Cave was located near the Sianok Canyon. Just like its name, this cavewas an historical legacy of Japanese people that was used as a defense base during
World War II. Um. And you, where did you spend your holidays, Tia?
Tia : I went to my fathers hometown in Jogjakarta. There I visited many interesting places,
and one of them was Malioboro Street. Malioboro Street was one of my favorite spot inJogjakarta. I bought things with low price there as long as you are good at haggling over
the prices. I went to Magelang as well. I visited Borobudur, it was an awesome trip. So,where did you spend your holidays, Ayu?
Ayu : Actually, I didnt go to any cool places out of the town like you all did. My parents
were too busy working on our bakery shop.
Tia : Awwh thats too bad. I hope you didnt feel sad for that.
