We boarded the bus at 10.00 a.m. and arrived around 1.00 p.m. My uncle and aunt were waiting for us at the bus station. They were delighted to see us. The following day, my uncle brought my sister and I to the National Zoo. We saw various mammals, birds and reptiles. I took many photographs with my camera. After lunch, we went to the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park. There were colourful birds of different species. The next day, my uncle brought us to the National Museum. We spent the day learning about our country's history and looking at exhibits placed outside the museum. On the last day of our visit, my aunt brought us to several shopping malls. We bought many things for ourselves. I also bought a leather wallet for my father and a silver watch for my mother. My sister and I definitely had an enjoyable holiday.
