Essay Writing

A journey by bus

During last Rongali Bihu vacation, I went to Tezpur with my parents and sister. We went there to see the historical places by a bus. We started our journey from Guwahati at 6 a.m.. My parents were sitting on one side and me and my sister were sitting on the other side of the bus.

Before our journey began, our father bought two newspapers and two monthly magazines for me. Mother bought some sweets, chocolates and a big packet of potato chips for us. When the journey began, I started reading a newspaper and my sister started eating chocolates. To cross the Saraighat bridge was a nice experience for us. I stopped reading the newspaper when we were on the bridge and I fully enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mighty river Brahmaputra.

A train was also passing when we were crossing the bridge. My sister was very excited to see the passing of a train through the Saraighat bridge. After crossing the bridge I again engaged myself in reading a magazine. I like to read magazines while journeying on a bus. At Kharupetia our bus stopped. Four of us got down from the bus and had tea and snacks there.

Again we started our journey. We were very happy to see the paddy fields and tall trees on both sides of the road. It took about six hours to reach Tezpur. After getting down from the bus, we went directly to see the historical places by a bus. Then we went by a taxi to book a room in a hotel. I will remember this bus journey because it was my first journey to Tezpur by a bus.
