GOING TO THE ZOO

Yesterday, my family and I went to the zoo, to see the elephants and other animals. We went by car and left home 7 at a.m. It took about one and half hours to get to the zoo.

When we got to the zoo, we went directly to the pet shop to buy some animal food. We spent fifteen thousand rupiahs on the food. After getting the food, we first visited the nocturnal house where birds and reptiles-which only come out at night were displayed. It was really interesting. After that we went for a ride on an elephant. It was a thrill! My dad nearly fell off when he let go of the rope.

At 12.15 p.m., my mom and my sisters prepared the lunch. We ate our lunch under a big tree near the elephant area. After lunch, we went to the bird park. We fed some of the birds inside the park. When we returned home we were tired but happy because we had so much fun.
