Contoh Teks Recount

OUR TRIP TO SURABAYA

My brother and I started our journey on Monday morning. We started from home at about 4 am. We went to Pacitan bus station. Luckily the bus to Surabaya was still waiting for passengers. It was not full yet. Then we got in and chose the most comfortable seat. My brother agreed with me to sit in the middle.
After about half an hour waiting, the bus was full of passengers. The driver started the engine and we left the bus station. After two and a half hours the bus reached Ponorogo, it stopped at Ponorogo station for quite a long time. We had our breakfast here. Not long after that the bus was ready to continue the journey. Oh, we were sleepy then. We both fell asleep. We slept soundly, too.
We sometimes woke up when we reached a bus station. The last bus station that we remembered was Jombang. From here we slept again. Our trip was really a nice one. Why? Because we just slept and slept. We did not realize that we had already reached Bungurasih station. We didn't know exactly how many hours we traveled from Pacitan to Surabaya. The conductor then woke us up. Then we woke up, and I looked at my watch. It was eleven o'clock. I arrived at Surabay on time.
