An Exciting Holiday

 When I was 2^nd junior high school, I and all of my friends, grade 8 SMP 1 Blora went to Bali Island. We went to Bali for enjoying our holiday. We were in Bali about 5 days, on Friday 11^st March until 15^th 2011. We went there by bus. We went to Bali Island at 08.30 WIB, and we arrived in Bali in the next day at 05.00 WITA.

The first day, on Friday, I and my friends gathered at school at 08.00 WIB to go to Bali Island. After waiting for along time, our bus came. We used Dali Mas bus. There were 5 buses. And I used bus A, my friends who sat beside me were Widya and Putri. They are my best friend. Our Bus is very good. Even tough our bus there isn’t toilet but, it is very big and long bus. And I felt comfort. We started our journey at 08.30 WIB.

 In bus, there was TL. We called him mz.JO, actually he is not so handsome, but he is very friendly. And besides that, there was driver. I forget his name, may be Mr. Sukan. I don’t know. Hhehehe. He is courage people! True! He drove big bus from Blora until Bali Island, full day. When we slept, he still drove the bus, good!

On the way, mz.jo told us about everything, and when we arrived at Surabaya, mz.jo told us about all of history in Surabaya, for example mz.jo told us about “Jembatan Merah”. And besides that, we passed Suramadu Bridge. Unfortunately, when we passed in there, rain fell down. So we could not see beautiful scenery clearly. But, never mind, we were still happy. And then, we felt very sleepy. So I and my friends slept. As usual, when we slept, the Driver still drove the bus.

When we slept, may be at midnight, mz.jo waked up us. Actually I was very sleepy, but never mind. And, I was very surprised, because mz.jo showed and told us about PAITON (PLTU). It is very amazing. The scenery is very beautiful. The lamps are very good and bright, and we were lucky because we could see PAITON at night, and it is very good. After that, we arrived in restaurant. In there, we were dinner and prayed jama’takhir qasar magrib isya. And then, after finishing we continued our journey to go to harbor.

After arriving, we had to down from bus. So, I and my friends went down from bus and we waited to go to Bali Island by ship. In there, I and my friends met students from SMP 2 Blora. By chance SMP1 and SMP2 Blora went to Bali Island in the same day.

After long enough for waiting our ship, we could go to Bali Island for about at 03.00 WIB. In the ship, I saw many children swam in the sea to wait money from us. So, we threw our money in the sea, and then they would catch that money. And I was very surprised. They were very brave. Even tough they swam at 03.00, and it was so cold, but they could bear it.

Then we arrived in Bali Island at 05.00 WITA on Saturday. At that moment I was very happy because I had been in Bali Island. After that, we would stop at mosque for praying. After praying, we had been ready to enjoy our holiday on Saturday. In the morning, we went to Tanah Lot. In there, we took a bath and breakfast. According to me, the food in there was not so delicious. But, willy-nilly we had to eat. After eating, we went to the sea in there. The scenery is very beautiful. In there I took photos with my friends. Besides that, in Tanah Lot, we had been waited by Bli Agung. He was our guide. He would accompany us during in Bali Island. 

Next, we went to Tanjung Benoa. On the way, Bli Agung told us about Bali Island, about cultures, food, tourist resort in Bali and soon. After arriving, we directly went down from bus. In Tanjung Benoa, I and my friends would visit “Penyu Island”. But, we had to make group. One group there were 10 person. After making group, we directly went to “Penyu Island” by boat. It was very fun. But, at that moment I felt afraid, because when we were in boat, rain fell down heavily.

In “Penyu Island” I and my friends saw many turtles. Besides that, there was snake. I fed and took photos with them.  After satisfied, we went back to Tanjung Benoa and lunch.  Next, after finishing we went to Dreamland.  What a beautiful! But, the wave is very high. So, I just saw beautiful scenery from far distance. Not so near. We were in Dreamland about one hour, after finishing we directly went to GWK. As usual, Bli Agung told us about Bali on the way. After waiting, in the evening we arrived in GWK.

In GWK, first we walked around in there. We saw big statue. The statue is very high, big and beautiful. And I took many photos in there with my friends. Then, we gathered in a large place to watch traditional dancing from Bali. We were very surprised and happy, because traditional dancing from Bali is very amazing, and we were very satisfied.  After that, we went to our hotel to check in. The hotel is in Jimbaran, and it is beautiful hotel. I got bedroom number 7 with Putri,Widya,Tisna, and Happy. In the night, we didn’t take a bath because we had been very tired, so we just dinner and then slept.

In the morning, on Sunday, we got up and prayed. After praying, we took a bath, and then we were having breakfast together. The food was not so delicious. At that day, we would visit Cening Bagus, Sukowati, Sanur, Krisna and Kute.

First, we visited Cening Bagus. In there, we bought many things from Bali Island. After that, we went to Sukowati, but in there I didn’t buy anything. Then we went back in Cening Bagus for lunch. In there, we ate and we were entertained by singer. And we enjoyed it. After finishing, we continued our journey to go to Sanur. On the way, Bli Agung told us about history of Sanur. He said that, Sanur is a beautiful place. In there, there is white sand and black sand. Sanur is very beautiful. Next, we went to Krisna. Krisna is big shop. In there, there are many things of Bali Island, I and my friend bought something, and we also prayed in there. After that, we went to Kute. But, unfortunately we could not go to Kute by bus because the road is narrow. So, we went there by public car. We waited very long to arrive in Kute. After waiting for a long time, we arrived in kute about 15.00 WITA. In there, the scenery is very beautiful, but there was much rubbish in there. So, it looked very dirty.

In kute, I saw many foreigners, actually I wanted to speak with them. But, there wasn’t my friends wanted to accompany me, so I just smiled with them, but they smiled too. In there, I enjoyed the scenery. And I took many photos with my friends. It made me very happy. After satisfied, we went back to go to Hotel to take a rest. After arriving, I and my friends directly took a bath because we were very smelly. Then, we were dinner. In the night, there was a small party. And because I was born in 14^th march, so I follow that party. Actually that day was 13^rd March, but mz.Jo said that I had to follow. So I followed that party.

After finishing, we went back to our bedroom. In bedroom, I and my friends were kidding together and we also told about our experiences. And then, we didn’t realize if it had been midnight, but we couldn’t sleep because we were afraid. And finally at 00.30 WITA we slept.

The last day, in the morning on Monday, we got up then prayed subuh and took a bath. And it last day we were in Hotel. Next, we were having breakfast and also check out from our Hotel. We started our journey to go to Joger. In there, we bought many clothes and slippers. We bought it for our family or friends.

Next, we continued our journey in Bedugul. The scenery in Bedugul is very beautiful besides that, the air is cold and fresh. On the way, Bli Agung told us about geographies in Bedugul. Besides that, Bli Agung told us about Leak. Leak is ghost in Bali Island,,, it is very scary.

Next, we had arrived in Bedugul. When we went down from Bus, the air is very cold. So, we wore jacket. First, we were lunch. In there, the food was very delicious. Not so bad. After lunch, we went to lake in there. Actually we could around the lake by boat. But I didn’t do it, and I just saw beautiful scenery near the lake and took photos with my best friends. 

Finally, we had to go home. Next, we continued our journey to go to harbor. On the way, mz.jo entertained us. He gave questions, if we could answer we would get prize. After waiting, finally we arrived in harbor. In there we waited to go to java by ship. We waited very long. Then, at 19.00 WITA we had been in ship and we started to do journey to go home.
