My Holiday in Lombok

I was in the second grade of senior high school when my friends and I went to Lombok for
a vacation. It was really great holiday.
Firstly, we visited Gili Meno beach. The beach was so magnificent, with its white sand and
blue seawater. That day, a lot of tourists went there, most of them foreigners. I was also

excited when I saw Bryan Adam, the pop singer. I took a photograph with him.
The next day, we started the day by visiting Senggigi beach. We played banana boat and
rode the jet ski. It was exciting, even though I fell into the water many times. After that, we

went to Pura Batu Bolong, a small temple by the beach. It is a good place to take some
photographs. We ended the journey that day by watching the amazing sunset on the beach, as
well as the beautiful waves these could offer.
On the last day, we went to Sasak village. It was a very memorable moment because I
could enjoy their unique culture. We were guided by a local person. He said that the Sasak

people had inhabited Lombok in ancient times. He also explained the uniqueness of Sasak
buildings, which are similar to a warehouse. We also learned to weave, from a Sasak woman.
We spent almost four hours there. We bought some Sasak souvenirs there.

Sadly, we had to check out of the hotel in the evening. We almost missed the flight home
because there was a traffic jam on the way to the airport. Fortunately, the flight got delayed,
so we were able to catch the plane. We went back home, taking so many amazing memories of
Lombok.
