My Last Holiday

    Hey fellas!
     Long time no see! It's been a while, right? Now my first semester in SMAN 3 Bandung is finished. The second semester is coming! Can't wait!
     Oh, I got a two-weeks-holiday-time between the first and the second semester. Actually it's not quite special because I couldn't go to my grandpa and grandma house in Sumbawa Island. But, it's quite amazing though! I got a nice and lovely time with my small family. I visited many wonderful places. Do you guys want to hear the story of my last holiday? Well I hope you are. Hehe.

     After I got my report card, I got an extracurricular activitiy on Ranca Upas, Ciwidey, Bandung. It was an activity for Astronomy Research Team. Yeah, I was a part of Astronomy Research Team on my school. Our activity was called 'Stargazing'. It was a very memorable memory with my friends. We saw some beautiful stars constellations such as Orion, Taurus, and many more. We had to wait until midnight to see the stars because there was a mist. It was very cold over there. I had to sleep with a jacket plus a sleeping bag plus socks. We spend one night over there and we went back to SMAN 3 Bandung in the next morning.

     So, the first place that I visited with my family during the holiday was Tahura and Tebing Keraton. Both of the places are located in Dago, Bandung. It was a nice places. Although the trip to go to there was not so smooth at all, when we saw the scenery over there, it was so natural and amazing and it was worth it. We felt so happy, like all of our problems on the past semester were gone. Yeah, it was a perfect place to refresh ourself. My little sister and I tried some amazing facilities over there such as Japanesse Cave and the hammock. The Japanesse Cave was so dark and we had to turn on the flashlight from our smartphones. According to the tour-guide, it was a secret cave that was made by the Japanesse armies to hide the weapon supplies. Meanwhile the hammock was very amazing and very scary too. I still felt frightened although I already wore a safety belt. After going around, we felt tired so we went back home to get some rest and preparing ourself for the next day.

     The second place that we visited was Kampung Tulip. It is located in Pasir Pogor, Ciwastra, Bandung. Kampung Tulip was a perfect places to take a pictures because the scenery over there was very cool. It felt like we wasn't on Bandung, but in Netherlands! Yeah, there were a beautiful windmill, some Europe-styled-houses, a small lake, and some food courts. We also could rent a beautiful Netherlands costume. It was a lovely costume to take a photo with. There were some hats that we could rent too. The other thing that we also could rent was boats to go around the lake. I got many beautiful and rare photos over there. I loved the pictures and I couldn't wait to post it on the social media. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to taste the foods over there. The place was getting more crowded and it was getting hot so we decided to go home. We went back home with an amazing feeling.

     The third and the last places that we visited was Farm House. It is located in Lembang, Bandung. We came there on January 1st 2017 so it was so crowded. It was difficult to get a perfect places to take a pictures. But, I enjoyed sight-seeing around the Farm House. I saw a Hobbit house, a barn, a garden, a gate full of padlock, a wishing well, and many more. I loved the scenery over there. It was like a real farm house. I played with some cute lambs too. And I tasted some snacks over there. I tasted the milk, the croissants, and the roasted corn. It tasted so delicious. We could get the milk by exchanging our ticket to go inside. Meanwhile, we bought the croissant and the roasted corn. It was a bit expensive but it is delicious. After that, we went back home with a wonderful feeling.
     And that's my holiday story. It maybe sounds so simple, but I love it because I can spend my holiday with my family and that's enough for me. I hope the next holiday is going to be so much fun like this holiday.
     That's all about my last holiday. By the way, how is your first day of school? My first day of school was amazing though, if you ask me. I hope this semester is going to be better than the last semester to all of you guys. :)
     Bye fellas!
