    A Beautiful Day at Jakarta

    Last month, my family went to Jakarta. We visited many places there.

    First, we visited we visited Ragunan Zoo. We saw many kinds of animals


    there such as lion, birds collection, butterfly collections, etc. We looked around
    in that Zoo, and also took pictures of those animals. Second, we visited Ancol
    Beach. The sun shone brightly and the scenery was very beautiful there. We
    felt the wind blew across to us. We also saw a lot of people in that beach.
    There were many birds flew in the sky. Also, there were many sellers who sold
    many kinds of souvenirs. Then, we felt hungry, so we went to a restaurant. As
    soon as we finished our lunch, we decided to go home.

    For me, that was a good moment because I could spend my time with
    my family. We really enjoyed it.
